There is a whole Eco-system of tech-bloggers and tool-smiths, whos whole working-life consists of ripping out the "improvements" Microsoft has shoveled towards the users - riding binary rodeo with every update.
My assumption is that this Eco-system will rather soon bring the clumsy Microsoft attempt to become google one stack-layer closer to the user to a horrific end.
This has been going on since I got into the "Windows scene" 15 years ago with Windows XP, slipstreaming and custom install INI's. It's no longer the area I work in, but something tells me your prediction is probably as wrong as it was when people were saying this exact same thing 15 years ago.
