> a problem that had already been solved by any other desktop operating system in the last 50 years

I just gave you an example of Windows that by default fails this requirement (see settings vs control panel or what that is called), let alone when you install applications using sorts of different frameworks.



Maybe other OSs solved this, but Windows didn’t - it just kept adding new UI libraries replacing older ones so that old software could still run and look old.
