Ads have been served in Home edition since 10 was dropped with 1507. And they strip group policy from it to make it harder to change that. Windows Vista to Windows 8.1 were offered free upgrades to Windows 10, based on the version those keys belonged to.
I’m right now testing Windows 11 deployment for work and I hate it. I’ll move to Linux before I move to Windows 11 on my personal devices.
I mean yeah, whenever the specific changes were put in place as you outlined. I don’t use windows enough to know the history, but I appreciate the clarification

No problem. I don’t apply my experiences to others’ lives, or at least I try not to. Thanks for taking along the lines I was trying to convey!
