an enhancement, not a sacrifice of features.

"A distro maker" isn't M$.

Simplicity:
ie fewer features in Linux.

Winblows has features that are superfluous.

But the simplicity of 'sudo apt install package' cannot be beat.
They're trying with chocolatey.org:

It's better than bloat in Windows.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
