Sysadmins rebel over GUI-free install for Windows Server 2016

Don't care how easy it is.

Don't care what users you are targetting.

Don't care that it's possible to fix.

Don't care that you might not like the way some users admin their servers.

Don't care. You removed an option that wasn't hurting anyone. PUT IT BACK.

This is the MS stuff that drives me nuts. Worse? That they ALWAYS - EVERY DAMN RELEASE - do something like this just to hear the outcry, only to change it before release so they can say they "listened to the users". Listen now - stop it, and stop removing options. Removing the start menu really worked out well compared to just having an option, didn't it? Now you've had to put it back in.

Not at all scared of command-line management but give me the damn choice that I always used to have and stop peeing about with release previews to make it look like you're doing something.
