Microsoft learns nothing from their continued pattern of going all-in on a trendy and unproven concept. Windows 8 "live tiles" that were supposed to create one look and feel across devices, Cortana was supposed to be the digital assistant of the future, they even did their own poorly executed folding phone.

I feel like it's more pandering to investors than having actual faith it it taking off.

Sure but do you think that works in the long run? Wouldn't it be better if they just made things right? I don't have the answer but I know it's what I prefer

What the user prefers doesnt matter. Its what the investors prefer.

For users, the important statistic is tolerance. Find the point on the graph where you have the highest shareholder preference that allows the lowest possible tolerance of users before they break from the product.
