Tldr: Remote desktop, Cortana, camera, people app are all getting uninstall buttons.
Why remote desktop? I can understand the rest. But who uninstalls default apps and doesn't use remote desktop?
Very few people use remote desktop.
Very few people bother removing all the default apps in the first place.
The type of high caliber nerd to care about a pre installed app that sits dormant and uses a few MB of storage probably already uses remote desktop often enough they'd want to keep it.
I would have used it but it's only available on Pro/Enterprise versions. But that led me to finding Parsec so all ended well.
