In order to maintain Moore's Law – by which transistor density doubles every two years or so – it now takes 18 times as many scientists as it did in the 1970s.

That means each researcher's output today is 18 times less effective in terms of generating economic value than it was several decades ago.

The drastic nature of the changes has resulted in us disabling some of the features that previously existed in the XAML designer

As a result, we are only releasing the updated designer for a small subset of XAML scenarios – specifically, for developers building UWP applications that target the Fall Creators Update.
