I can't imagine they don't have a meeting with 12 people around a huge table and no one says "but if we do X, we break Y".

Isn't that being professional?

The sort of manager that wants to bully the users into not uninstalling the product is also the sort of manager to bully the developers into doing it, even if they know it will break things.

If you do that, you'll be labelled with "negative attitude" on your next evaluation. Been there, done that, and it wasn't even at Adobe.

Being professional stopped counting a long time ago - look at what Google, Microsoft, Apple and most other big companies are doing. People are afraid to update but have little choice.
