The strength of windows market-share lies in the backwards compatibility with win32. Users don't want uwp or whatever new stack MS wants to impose. They want continuous access to their existing purchases of win32 apps. That MS calls win32 'legacy' matters very little. |

Win32 lives because there are millenia of man-hours invested into Win32 applications. If one day Win32 would disaapear, they would be not ported to UWP or other framework of the day.
Whey would be ported to the Web. But while Win32 lives, the cheapest path is to maintain them as Win32.
