I’d argue that Windows 11 is a result of what Google has been getting away with Android.
Google has shown Microsoft that the users happily pay money for giving up the control of their device.
While Android was open 10 years ago, Google has worked hard to lock it down for 99% of the end users.
The amount of personal data they get from each device is staggering.
They all find their way to shit when profit, not user satisfaction, is the ultimate goal. In the end, we are talking Microsoft here, we already know them.

Well, at least when you used to buy windows you were the user and the customer.
With Google you’re just the product.
It’s hard to avoid being their “customer” here. It feels more like the taxpayer experience.
Now you’re the user, customer, and the product all at once on Windows!
