Yah they do deserve to be treated like shit. At this point they are willingly participants. MS has been making the experience shittier and shitter and people accept it. If they do roll this back it is only because they are worried.

    There are valid reasons for some people to be stuck. For example, work computers they have no control over or niche software that will not work in WINE or Winboat. I know someone who still has Windows 98 because of a piece of ancient embroidering software that no longer exists, will not run on newer versions of Windows, and requires a hardware dongle that doesn’t work under Winboat or WINE. I tried. I spent weeks on it.
