If you really think about it from the point of view of defaults, Windows is a even worse mess.
* You often need to do non-standard system tweaks to get the system in a working state. It's everything-doesn't-work-by-default.
* You often need to install/prevent instalation of bad quality drivers and associated bundleware to make devices work.
* Microsoft can't decide what UI framework they will support (or drop support) so built-in applications happens to be built with the current "thing", the old ones staying on the older unsupported frameworks.
* You need to constantly tweak a combination of Windows 3.11 control applets, Windows 95 control panel applets, Windows 7 unified control panel glass, and Metro Settings Universal Windows Platform app to keep things working.
* Microsoft can't decide what random widgets go on the taskbar, or the file manager, or your start menu, so it's always disrupting things every few updates.
It is arriving at a point where the only "consistent" UI thing in Windows is Steam, and Steam isn't built-in, and is a hot mess of inconsistent UI itself.
