#4What is MS's end game here? The development cost savings seem not worth it. The only plausible reason I can think of is collision with PC manufacturers to boost sales.

#5Hmm, I wonder if they're doing this so they can drop some code for Spectre/Meltdown mitigations? If memory serves the fix was somewhere around the 10th-11th gen for Intel.

#10They also enforce secure shit boot for 25H1 and forward. I don't see Windows being successful aside from office environment. But even here some already look for alternatives because the costs for very buggy software have become substantial.
What a shitty policy by them.
Given how hard notebook maintenance is for simple things like accessing the HDD, an UEFI password is probably just as safe for many users.
