The idea of Win 10 Cloud as a "successor" to Win RT induced a wave of nausea.

On WinAero, Sergey Tkachenko's under-the-hood Win exploratorium: [^].
Quote:
Besides this restriction, many Store apps cannot be installed or launched in the current version of Windows 10 Cloud. Neither can Windows 8 Metro apps from the Store run.

It is also worth mentioning that apps converted from Win32 to the UWP wrapper using Project Centennial app do not work in Windows 10 Cloud. The limitation is very strict and similar to the restrictions implemented in Windows RT.
Yep, sounds like an alpha escaped from the zoo.
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008
