I suspect the TPM 2.0 requirement is the bigger reason. Let's face it, most Windows users are unaware of what exact version they are running. If it prompted to auto-update to Windows 11 they would click yes.

I am sure that may be true for some users, but certainly not for all.

My computer meets TPM 2.0 requirements, but I turn down every Windows 11 upgrade offer.

The business I work for buys new PCs to replace old ones, but the company OS image is still Windows 10.
