I do somewhat agree, however the title is a bit misleading then IMHO. It's not so much a debloat as it is a how to make a very customized installation for your very specific environment.

Splitting hairs perhaps, but a lot of people don't/won't understand the difference - or why you did this.

Most non home users use Windows Enterprise and GPOs to achieve these results, where things are more fine tuned and can be reversed as needed.

Perhaps, but the main feature was that it was a debloat without requiring an internet script. There are plenty of scripts and tools out there for de-bloating, but nothing so quick for a stock install that might not even have internet.

I have added a Microsoft-written script in an update to the article which reinstalls all stock AppX packages.
