Unfortunately, yes. I was lucky enough to get a not so insignificant space in onedrive. It has helped me out more times than I can count. I clearly understand why this feature is included, and no it's not so that boomers don't lose it out. It is pure marketing.

If it was a genuine effort to help out people, it wouldn't be so in your face. They'd realize that if someone's disabling it through registery then they probably don't use onedrive or that they absolutely do not need it,
