Technically it was just a Microsoft Tech Evangelist that said that, in a non official capacity, and I'm pretty sure the sales people took him to the torture chamber after that.

From a technical point of view, there was nothing stopping Microsoft from making Windows 10 a rolling release, so I can see how some naive fools might have convinced themselves that their employer wouldn't be shitty to their users for the first time ever.

It wasn't just a tech evangelist. Our Microsoft sales people were telling us that feature updates would mean no more major os versions.
