Comment on Help me navigate the world of debloated/custom Windows 11 Installs

This is the problem. Debloating Windows is a tug of war with Microsoft. Many here have pointed out you’d need to likely re-run the scripts after Windows Updates. After getting over the initial hump, you are likely going to be needed less day by day going the Linux route (or give up on them actually using a debloated and tracker free Windows).
Either:
- Your parents are sharper than you are giving them credit, and they’d likely pick it up pretty quick. or 2) They really are as unsavvy as you say and should not be downloading and installing whatever software they think they need on Windows, and would likely be safer on any Linux distro with a gui package manager.

Do you find success in replying to RFP’s by saying “your carefully thought through requirements, of which you are closest to in understanding, are wrong and should be discarded - look at my proposal instead”?

I’m just pointing out the contradictions in the ‘requirements’, and explaining why you were likely getting “the Linux recommendation” you complained about in your edit.
Also, this isn’t an ‘RFP’ - you aren’t offering to pay anyone anything to do your dirty work. You asked for advice and appear to get mad when some of the advice you receive is not to your liking. Don’t act entitled, it’s literally free help/advice in a public forum. Even if someone’s suggestions don’t help you, they might help the next person with a similar situation/concern that comes looking for advice.
