I know, and I agree with you.

But, really, preaching to the choir does not serve any useful purpose.
That's what I'm saying. I usually comment or ask about Windows

result at all, other than increasing the levels of adrenaline in my
bloodstream and making me ignore that person's messages?

No. But that does not make us, the people who use and work with
Windows, unethical. Our priorities are a bit different, that's all.
