I should've mentioned it earlier, but I already switched to Linux distros like Ubuntu since about 2011, so I'm personally not affected by these end of support dates as much. My concern is more about other people, the kind of stuff I can't really influence myself.

Of course I know that computers don't stop working after just because Windows 10 went out of support. It's more of, for example, a severe vulnerability is discovered that has been fixed in later Windows versions but not 10 that may cause some people to panic. Maybe I'm being paranoid here, but I did raise some valid points, some of which coincidentally play into profit motives such as by encouraging the purchase of new hardware.
