I don't understand why people speak for the whole population. I'm sure MS runs Analytics for these and would've killed it off if "no one" wants it.

Microsoft users do not want it.

Microsoft customers want it.

In case it's not obvious, when Windows was given away for free, the users were no longer customers, and transitioned to become "product".
