AFAIK even in Win 10 MS haven't provided an easy way to get rid of it (e.g. a check box in Taskbar properties), one must resort to a registry hack or a 3rd party gadget Ψ²
Why was it resurrected. Because hoards of self-proclaimed 'experts' loudly complained from their media soap boxes; and then the sheep blithely followed their beloved judas goats and retweeted, and retweeted. Thus it was that a feature that's been redundant for a decade and half gets reinstated; just because some 'poor diddums' hacks threw their toys out if their prams  ... |

The 20-30 people who call on me (via my local community centre) for help with their PCs fall into two camps. Those who embrace most change with a shrug, and those who complain about any and every thing. Biggest complainers are middle aged men. We don't get many under thirties. |
Agree completely!!!!!!!!!!
Regarding the middle aged men (them most frequently, but often highly over-opinionated and could be said to be "bossy" women in mid 20s through 30s) I think it is similar to the experience in other business change management.
With respect to the men in business change they are often the ones who want to be seen as the "knowledge leaders" among their peers even when, in fact, they actually know very little at all about the subject; maybe a bit of a misplaced macho thing with men (won't comment on the observations during business change regarding cause in women else we will have a riot, very sensitive grounds that for an aging male to comment on here
).
