There is an interview with Raymond Chen where he is trying to defend the reason why they crippled the taskbar with Windows 11 [1].

Watching that I was just thinking NO NO NO - it worked fine for the last 25 years and there can be absolutely no reason why they had to destroy the taskbar now.

He deserves every headache he gets with these support requests.

Or to quote this comment of the linked article:

> There wouldn’t be as much of a need if the windows shell team was smarter [...] In fact I actively encourage, support, and celebrate efforts like this. Make their life hell and delay them. If they spend more time on investigating issues like this, they’ll have less time to f*k something else up.
