insane obsession with hooking stdlib into windows internals and dropping support for old versions

Yeah I just learned about this, those stupid fucks wanted to bypass Win32 entirely and talk directly to ntdll which is a moving target and not a stable ABI. Literally the only advantage Windows has is that they have the only real stable ABI and zig didn't want it. They want to continually maintain the Windows target as the NT kernel changes. Contrarian programming.
