IMO it's because Windows is targeted for general use so they don't bother optimizing anything. They'll just convince people that thei have aging hardware when things become slow and say stuffs like "unused RAM is wasted RAM" to justify taking up half of my memory on idle.

Even running Linux from a USB is still a way smoother experience than running Windows for me.

Windows is so not optimised (unoptimized?) that I cannot even see what is slow anymore. Doesn't look like windows is targeted for anything in this state.
