Eg: If MS decided that ASP.NET WebForms is no longer supported, and forcibly removed it from Visual Studio, that would break our existing ASP.NET MVC5 apps which need to display and/or export SQL Server Reporting Services reports. Rather than writing our own replacement for the ReportViewer control using a 3rd-party SSRS library, or following MS's "solution" of paying for PowerBI Premium licenses, we'd have to stick with an outdated version of Visual Studio.


What you seem to have missed is that corporate IT forcing it down your throat is also a feature; so when MS deprecates something major your choices will either be spending half a year doing a rewrite (obviously not on corporate ITs budget 🙄) or having to tell your boss that in fact it's impossible to fix a typo on your apps main screen. 🤦🏽‍♂️
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
