It does?
Windows 10 upgrading problems are well-documents.... and expected. Giving the vast number of hardware the OS is compatible with. Driver issues for example shouldn't be a problem on SP4 because that PC is designed to run Windows 10 and is rocking the latest hardwar.

I'll admit that there are some hardware compatibility issues and I know I'm not the one to object that since I own an Intel Z170 chipset but WIndows 10 has the SAME system requirements as Windows 7 does ...

Where? Pretty much everywhere. Google it and take your pick.

I've had my Xbox one since March 2014 ... the UI has been improving month over month. Microsoft is consistently making it better with every update. I have the kinect which get the most out of the Xbox One UI. Microsoft should sell a cheap microphone that plug into the Kinect port and give you the voice command control to everyone that own an Xbox one. Microsoft has done a great job to cater to new customer that don't have Kinect and change the UI to support both users.
Windows 10 is great and I have no issue with it. It fix every concern I had with Windows 8 and is even better then windows 7. I think many of the people complaining about compatibility issues are simply using obsolete hardware and should simply revert back to the older OS.

... and it runs smoother than Windows 7 on the same hardware.. Don't get me wrong, I like Windows 10 a lot, waiting for the OS and Edge to mature before upgrading though, I can't wait to ditch Chrome. I just know, from personal experience, that some people had troubles upgrading and had to downgrade.

Then just do a fresh reinstall with Windows 7 and then directly upgrade to Windows 10 once your done ...
That wasn't so hard to sidestep the issues of old apps, now was it ?

Google (or recently Alphabet) is a conglomerate, not just an ad company. Just because forbes needs a classification system, it does not mean that they cannot be viewed as a primary software development company. Look at the wiki page, they seem to agree that they have more then just ads in the works:
The internet is wonderfull, you can use it for far more then simply browsing forbes 24/7.

Or don't do it as all and be every bit as well off without a fraction of the trouble? That's even easier, now isn't it?
