One issue is that some people are still on windows 7 installs that were upgraded. Windows 7 had a large enough partition for then, but the upgrade now needs more. Unfortunately 2009 Microsoft didn't anticipate that this should be bigger for 2023 installs. Making it larger is a hassle I wouldn't want to code either.

Both my laptops were Win10-native, not upgrades from previous versions.
