MS PR move couldn't work
MS tried to get away from the disastrous weekly (bi-weekly to patch patches) bug and security fixes because of the bad optics and subsequently bad PR.

Unfortunately for Windows users, anything other than weekly MS apps/Windows maintenance is just not realistic, thus MS NEEDS to break it's own edict of "monthly patches" or put it's customers at more risk than they already suffer.

When will the Thesaurus ever add "MS/Windows User" as an alternative to "masochist"??? happy
