I would have upgraded if they didn't include the UI changes. I don't know why Microsoft keeps trying to make these big UI changes given that they have a built-in audience of power users that have optimized since XP.
I think it's a way to justify the update. It's probably really about telemetry and hardware control, but normies see the centered taskbar and subconciously go "this must be new technology"
