You have 100,000 devices to manage. How do you handle that efficiently without creating a monoculture?
It's not a "90ies PC metaphor" problem. Swap Chromebooks for PCs and you still have the problem-- how do you handle centralized management of that "fleet"?
Should every employee "bring their own device" leaving corporate IT "hands-off"? There are still monocultures within that world.
Poor quality assurance on the part of software providers is the root cause. The monocultures and having software that treats the symptoms of bad computing metaphors aren't good either, but bad software quality assurance is the reason this happened today.
