How to Block Windows 10 Creators Update

Surely "Creators Update" should have an apostrophe in it somewhere?

It should really be called the "Creators' Update". My guess is either Microsoft's marketing people don't like apostrophes or someone at Microsoft doesn't want creators to get the idea that they have ownership of the update.

Maybe it's a call to arms? "Creators! Update!"

Or maybe it's just a bug... ;)

Or a statement of fact. "Users use. Creators update."

It should, but I've even seen Microsoft official PR statements put it as a plural instead.

It really should just be officially called Windows 10.3; Threshold 1/1507/RTM being 10.0, Threshold 2/1511/November Update being 10.1, Redstone 1/1607/Anniversary Update being 10.2, Redstone 2/1703/Creator's Update being 10.3.

They've also created new rules for grammar.
