Honestly how often does anyone use the start menu these days?
I am on windows all day long for analysis/development, anything I actually use is just pinned to the taskbar (like osx).
And when I do have to use the start menu to find something like newly installed.. not sure how you really think it's that different than win98? The left part is the same thing, it's just sorted alphabetically by program names etc.. and in theory now instead you just start typing for search instead of looking.
Overall calling win98 more user friendly than win10 sounds ludicrous, unless you are someone who never actually uses windows..

The fact you don't have a resolution of 640x480 and you can lay down big high resolution icons in the taskbar help a lot in not needing to open the start menu
