I hope we don't get lumbered with a lot of them.  One of the best
things about Fedora (and similar Linuxes) was the one-stop way of
keeping everything up-to-date (yum update, dnf update, commands, and
their GUI tools, etc).

Going down the Windows route of having to individually update each
application from disparate sources, or each application doing their own
check for updates (usually when you start them up, and just want to use
them without wasting any time), is something I do not want to go back
to.

And I'm sure we'd also see applications that don't quite work right on
our systems, because it tried to be too universal.
