Ninjutsu OS appears to be a full ISO file containing a tweaked Windows installation source. Why not release everything as a tool that applies all the customizations on an installation from the official ISO?

The tools that are used to implement that customization (Win10-Initial-Setup-Script and O&O ShutUp10) were always available. So why not just publish the recipe? Do people still download OS and antivirus software from random sources, like a Yandex drive?

If I wanted to attract Microsoft's lawyers, this is exactly what I'd do.

Worth a historical note that this method of distributing more and more invasive software patches was how BSD was born.

Is this the Research Unix derivative Berkley Software Distribution from 1978 or the current day descendants?

Agree!

However, apparently some things can't be changed after installation?
