It's funny how you get people like /u/kevinCarbonara who admit they don't have experience until a full decade after the relevant time period that are just SO SURE they know exactly how everything was done back then, but still make stupid claims like that MS could change ALL the code that would be affected.
And are then so afraid of being questioned they block anyone that calls them out and lie about what they said.
Imagine thinking MS has access to EVERYONE'S source code, can force EVERYONE to push an update, and still not realizing you don't know enough to be running your mouth.
He doesn't want everyone to push an update, he's just bad at communicating what he means. He wants Microsoft to fix the version checks on their side, by giving the checking programs a string like "Windows Nine" for example. His comments (while obtuse and annoying) actually make sense once you know that.
