Like I said, entitled old people that think that computers are like their old car from 30 years ago, and therefore need to always look like their old care FOREVER, are the last people tech companies need to cater to.
What happened when your TV lost the UHF and VHF knobs? Did people demand TV companies put them back because that’s the way it’s always been?
“When you have an easier switch from Windows to Linux... “
Go and do so. I’ve seen it multiple times, only to see the same people be just as clueless over even how to even change the wallpaper because it wasn’t in the same exact place as Windows.
Computers are tools, not objects of devotion. I don’t read car manuals, until I need to change a bulb - the interfaces are intuitive. I don’t read TV manuals - the interfaces are intuitive based on past experiences. And I don’t read computer manuals - the interfaces should be intuitive. Something that the idiots at Microsoft apparently don’t understand.
Just because someone is fishing for a bonus for coming up with something new, doesn’t mean it should be implemented as the default. And if you professors didn’t teach you that, you should demand a refund. They were idiots, as well.

By the way, pup, 30 years ago, computers had command lines. Programmers had to know how to write code, not just copy and paste.
