That their solution is a few winget scripts on github to turn a vanilla Windows install into a "developer optimized" install is telling.

They could have, instead, made a standalone ISO of Windows with all the crap already stripped out. Instead, they are still treating the crap-filled version as the default with an option to strip it down.

If they wanted to correct their reputation, it needs to be the other way around. Ship the stripped down version as standard, and make the crap opt-in.
