Unfortunately corporations are addicted to the micromanaging control that Active Directory gives to them. They don’t give a single flying fuck about the actual experience of using the OS, that’s a problem for the plebians, they care that AD let’s them do things like lock everyone’s background to a corporate approved image or force everyone to use Edge as their browser while disabling the password saving feature.
Basically the OS is irrelevant, it’s all about Active Directory.
I’ve been in one of those, we moved to samba first and to ubuntu later, in the end of the day we only really needed updates and centralized login storage. There were like 10 windows machines for accounting.

Try being a sysadmin in a decent sized company (500+ employees) and you’ll understand why.
