Well...yeah. That's their bread and butter.
Nothing but lip service. MS did not "analyze your feedback" because it was never about what you wanted, they analyzed their income (most likely from enterprise customers) and realized they may have boiled the frog too quickly. Windows will never improve because they do not want it to improve, they want it to make as much money as humanly possible, and they will eternally push that envelope to find out just how much bullshit their customers will tolerate.
I believe the MacBook Neo was a real wake-up call for management. Apple dominates the high-budget market. Now that Apple has entered the low-budget market, it could threaten their market share, as well as Copilot's.
Thousnds of hours went into trashing the usability.

I see that photo and i think.
Hey, hang on.
They just raised my annual subscription charge due to costs of AI. Now they're undoing their work.
I bet the price of my subscription doesn't go down due to their incompetance.
If you start the 'cancel' subscription process it'll offer a non-ai option back at the original price.
Or at least it used to closer to when they pulled that stunt.
