    Probably to add something terrible for the user but good for MS. Ad integration? Easier to spy?

      That’s fair, but even with that, it’s got to be easier to shove it into existing code. Especially if you’re trying to do it in a way that people don’t notice!

      And actually, the Windows 10 start menu infamously had ads, too. So it can’t be that.
