They focused on getting around Windows shrink's liomitations.
From the list responses, I gather that one can
indeed srink the C: partition while it is in use.
I've been shrinking the Windows partition to make space for linux using
Windows Disk Management for years. There are caveats. See:

One thing I have noticed while on the subject of partitions , is that
most partition systems leave some extra space unaccounted for. I free
this up with gparted myself. I haven't used windows to shrink a
partition for a while and I am sure it does the same thing. Windows
reports some space but not all of it, while gparted does report all the
space.
