Um, I am very skeptical that Microsoft's KPIs have this level of alignment with actual user workflows.

You really should assume that Microsoft knows exactly what you do on their machine.
They know _what_ you do. They don't know _why_ you do it.
Where did I say they didn't?
Of course they do. It's all the telemetry that some people complain about.
I'm not denying the existence of intrusive telemetry, I'm saying their KPIs do not care whether they break your workflows?
I wonder how much overlap there is between people who disable telemetry and people who use the right mouse button in Explorer.
Without knowing exactly how far the common "debloat" Windows tools go, which every computer-toucher seems to recommend, I'd assume the overlap between "Users that disable, intentionally or otherwise, telemetry" and "Users that use 'Right-click -> More Options'" isn't quite a circle - but it is approaching one
