The entire article is based on a false premise:

With ESU, you can still get security updates and minor fixes or improvements, but the catch is that extended support ends on October 13, 2026.

Not true, there are three years of ESU updates available.

With how Microsoft are handling updates lately, no longer getting them might actually be a selling point
