Unfortunately the other crap is probably what’s going to get ported. They’ll maintain for a long while a backwards compatible version of Windows that they’ll sell for an arm and a leg, but they’ll try to move their uncaring customers to a Windows userland running on Linux.

That’s my belief, and I’m always looking for clues that it’s what develops into their long-term plan. Right now the only thing we could glean is reduced investments in Windows.

What "reduced investments"? They just put out 25H2 with numerous changes and many monthly updates bring new features online.

What I mean is that if you see reduced Windows investments then that's a sign. I'm not saying there are any right now.
