Yeah I also expect MS will see W11's poor uptake (iirc, W10 actually increased market share over the last 12 months) and will see it as necessary to extend. Probably more to reduce the risk of bad press from a serious security incident, rather than because they're afraid people will switch to Linux.
On the other hand, Microsoft is unbelievably good at screwing things up. They could totally dump 10.
I mean, they have to support LTSC anyway, so it would be easy, but still, MS be MS.
