The reality is, for 98% plus of windows users, NONE of that matters. MS could give a shit about tech. nerds that want to de-bloat, reduce resources, install crazy niche thingyawidget....

Pretty much everyone in this community is not their target.

Car analogy! You are car guys running custom block modified street racers shitting on electric cars...

Good old transportation analogies, we can make up anything with them.

Fedora/Mint is a free (electric) bike. Arch is free system to order bike parts and instruction how to assembly whole one yourself for free. Gentoo is an automatic parts molding machine. Linux From Scratch is a book about bikes. Windows is a Segway.

"Bikes are only free if you don't value you time" "Segway 10 is much easier to use, buttons are more intuitive than manual steering and if you know this Konami code you can ride without an account too!"

Considering many electric cars also spy on their users and have anti-features, it's probably a good analogy :)

I think a Corolla is a more appropriate analogy. You should see some of the Tesla swapped modded cars
