Microsoft is working on a new project labeled Windows 'K2', intent on removing bloatware, reducing AI, and optimizing Windows 11 for gaming, with three focuses of 'performance, craft, and reliability'.

the issue is not about performance, is about enshitification. I mean, do we need TPM? do we need Microslop account to login our pc/laptop? do they really need to shove Copilot into Windows?

This sounds like a very good thing, right? They've got the message that we don't want Copilot, we don't want AI, we don't want our computers to require an Internet connection, and they're listening.

No, they're listening to market share change.

Please explain how that's different from what I said?

The source of the numbers doesn't matter, only the numbers.

Is the downstream behavior not almost identical? Is this pedantry for pedantry’s sake, or are you attempting to make a point?

It's pedantry. The inevitable result of not listening to your customers is losing customers. Losing market share is still customer feedback.
