Do these updates not go through any rigorous testing at all

Lol no, MSFT infamously dropped their entire Hardware QA team after WIndows 7 and instead relied on the also infamous insider hub to get QA "feedback" from home users instead, leading to the also infamous Windows 8 disaster and slightly less infamous critical CVEs that went unaddressed because MSFT ddidn't even bother to read the insider hub posts.

Oh and they didn't learn anything and kept running with the insider hub well into Windows 10 & 11.
