Microsoft is losing Builders fast. They're switching to MacOS and Linux. The biggest pull keeping people on Windows, outside of shear inertia, is content creation and gaming. However, even these are falling to Linux.

Without Builders, you don't have software, and without software, you don't have users. This is why Microsoft needs Windows Lite.

    Appears to be, that I am wrong too, they renamed the things a couple of times. Dot-NetCore is now DotNet and .NET Framework is the win lib that existed before NetCore and still does
