Setting aside for the moment that it is a much better idea to just stop using windows. One of Microsofts arguments for why you shouldn't continue using Windows 10 is because it will stop being updated and will soon be insecure and get inundated with malware, adware, spyware ect. But Windows 11 already comes preinstalled with all of that so what difference does it make?

You're delusional if you think Microsoft's preinstalled crap is at all comparable to what hackers will do with a vulnerable PC.

Also this feature in particular is only for AI PCs which your Win10 PC probably won't upgrade to.
