Right, that's how startups work. And that's why enterprises rarely buy software or services from startups. Microsoft is expected to be able to produce something more polished and reliable.

But everyone complained that Microsoft was slow to change and adopt the new software practices that the world wanted. Can't have your cake and eat it too. I agree the enterprise-y applications need more polish and stability but MS needed a massive change quickly and this is it.

Linux distros like Ubuntu and Debian address this issue by offering different update streams so you can choose whether you want all the latest stuff or a more stable experience. Microsoft could do something similar, but they're lacking the "stable" option since the big push to Windows 8 and 10.
