in fairness to them microsoft takes their backwards compatibility seriously to the point where i'd absolutely see them keeping their old implementation hidden somewhere and hot-swapping it in when they detect an old program that needs some inexplicable internal access to some C struct being launched.
This is true, that could be the case based off previous observations buuuut considering they’re doing this for security purposes, I think it make little sense to leave them behind
Then again, megalithic tech companies do stupid shit all the time
