Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

I disagree for 3 things: UAC, PowerShell, and general driver abuse loopholes being closed and making security not a joke
I will also say from my personal experience there are a fair number of QOL improvements in the UI, but they kind of threw most of them away with 11, but hey, at least we get tabbed explorer... Which I still can't figure out any real use for, especially the way it's implemented...
Making security not a joke blessed us with crap like safedisc, securom, secure boot, denuvo, TPM, Pluton, Widevine, HDCP and more heinous crap. I think I can live without.
The only good thing is the UAC prompt. That one makes sense. Doesn't protect any of your important files, but keeps windows from killing itself. Sometimes.
