It’s interesting that the KB that patches this on Windows 11 (KB5063878) is the same one that was tied up in all the Phison SSD drama.

1) Those patches address a wide range of issues, from bug fixes to feature additions, to security fixes. This is uninteresting.

2) The issue had nothing to do with the patch. It was a coincidence.

It is interesting, that the bundling of updates has accidentally caused a problem.

a) People avoiding the update because one part causes problems

b) A security fix they probably need is only in that update

The update did not cause a problem with SSDs.

Whether or not it was real, it reinforces behaviour like [0].

And dealing with that, is a topic of conversation.
