Those people that don't know options exist are also people that don't care about or know about support life for something like the OS - they just see it as what the computer comes with. Most of them probably wouldn't have upgraded from 7 to 10 without it just doing it itself. A lot of them will just keep using 10 well past the end of support.
Also, I really enjoyed Railcar's subversion of expectations with all that lead up to what we all assumed was a Linux recommendation to end up being pirated windows. That got a chuckle out of me. I feel like the haters didn't get the joke.
Their computer didn't come with sense of humor pre-installed, and it's too hard to do it themselves.
