Microsoft keeps messing with the UI in obviously deleterious ways. If they didn't rewrite the entire interface in 11, no one would be complaining about 11's rounded corners. The very fact that they decided to add rounded corners has likely already distracted from kernel work.

Do you remember when Windows 10 was the last version of Windows? I wish we could go back.

The Windows team is so huge that I wouldn't be surprised if the people writing the shell and the people writing the kernel barely know eachother's names.
