Windows 11 can now reinstall itself from the cloud. Are clean installs dead?

Hey guys! Windows news. CLOUD REBUILD The optional KB5127936 update (28 October) adds "Cloud rebuild", which reinstalls Windows straight from Windows Update, with no USB stick needed. It's one of 41 changes. ALSO • Windows 11 26H2 is now available to everyone. • Insider builds let Windows Search call or text contacts through Phone Link, with iPhone support due next year. • Windows 10: consumer Extended Security Updates now run until 12 October 2027. WHAT DO YOU THINK? • Does Cloud rebuild make USB clean installs pointless? • Still on Windows 10? Staying, or moving to 11 or Linux? • What's the first thing you debloat on a fresh install?
