Hey, no, no malice read into it and I'm all for having a conversation about the subject. But it's also true that if we have to litigate the basic facts we're talking about (specifically, that Windows 10 WILL in fact have purchaseable security upgrades for several more years) over multiple posts it's just not a very productive conversation, you know? Ideally the chat starts from the actual information being shared in the link, or at the very least in the headline.
In any case, yes, businesses will need to keep getting security updates and they will get security updates for the foreseeable, be it by moving to Win11 where they can or by moving to the long term support tracks for Win10 where the hardware doesn't support it or it's cheaper.
