Right. Having your OS up to date is not important, I suppose?

There is a difference between asking nicely and shoving down the throat.

the fact the install media can’t provide a working desktop by itself is pathetic.

The fact that it’s a requirement - and moreover automatically creates and integrates with MS cloud services - is what people don’t like.

Nobody is arguing that it’s a bad idea to let your chosen distro installer automatically pull the most up-to-date packages.
