That's also a reasonable requirement for power users, I don't even consider myself a Windows power user since I mostly live in the terminal, browser and IDE - and play games of course, but gamers are hardly 'power users' either).

But Windows has been on a long downward spiral both for 'regular' and 'power' users (unless one counts stupid ideas like displaying ads in a desktop OS as a useful feature).

Windows has been my primary OS since 3.1 except for six or eight years when I drove Linux everyday. I went back to Windows when I stopped believing myself a snowflake.

Sure there's a bunch of bullshit in Windows. But I see ads on my desktop when I browse the internet anyway. I'll live.
