One minor point, the JEP says "Windows 10, the last Windows operating 
system to support 32-bit operation, will reach End of Life in October 2025."

I think this meant to say that Windows 10 is the last Windows versions 
that supports a 32-bit OS installation, because Windows 11 64-bit still 
supports running 32-bit applications (and thus supports "32-bit operation").
