That happened with Windows 8 and Vista as well. There was a running joke that every other Windows release was garbage when I was growing up.

And the joke works with 8 and 10 both being shitty, because they skipped 9, which would have been the good one.

They really should have gone with Windows Nine, to bring the naming scheme in line with Xbox One while also avoiding the startswith.('Windows 9') issue
