I mean... fuck that noise.

But also? That is actually a really good idea. The start menu was always fundamentally flawed and it took the bullshit that was windows 7 (?) to make me realize that. Clicking and navigating through nested menus and trying to guess whether a piece of software was listed by company, the app name, or something else was always a mess. Which is why winkey "dawn of war" was the optimal solution.

And as third party app stores (e.g. Steam) may or may not even bother to make a start menu entry to begin with? Having something that can search your computer AND distinguish between "the document that lists what primes I need to farm" and "the Warframe game itself" is a really good idea.

But yeah... I do not want "AI" based shit in an OS that is known to have a crapton of telemetry that gets toggled back on every time it silently runs an update.
