Microsoft: "Upgrade to Windows 11 or face the consequences of unsupported software!" Developers with battle-hardened machines: "I'll take the entire deck of security vulnerabilities, thanks." The risk calculation is simple—potential system instability from upgrading vs. the guaranteed productivity loss from having your PC held hostage by feature updates for 3 hours.
