Because Microsoft seems to sometimes not trust customer choi

Summary

This quote suggests that Microsoft purposely added extra features and hidden features within Windows XP to persuade users to try their own products.

This implies that despite Microsoft's efforts, customers still prefer the freedom of choice and are more inclined to explore alternative options.
