You are ignoring the power of default mode. Its not the optional mode. its the default mode and you need to pay extra to use other stores. 

Base on the Verge article I would agree with you.  On the other hand the thurrott article gave me a different impression.  I don't know which one correct.  Verge is not a place I personally use for a tech news source so I don't know what there track record like.

My interpretation was that windows 10/pro will comes with a S mode and you can switch back and fourth (no cost).

For people who currently own the windows 10 S that they will stop selling you can upgrade to regular windows 10 for free.

For people who currently own the windows 10 Pro S you will have to pay $50 to upgrade to the none S version (which now includes a S mode if you want).
