They said they believe it was a mislabeled update. MS didn't respond. Before criticizing others for their reading comprehension, I think you could work on yourself too.
There is a world, and it may be ours, where MS purposefully pushes this out. As the end of the article makes clear, this will be only a minor issue for those with good backup (which they probably all should but they don't), but for those who don't they'll be stuck with the new version and have to pay for the license of it. This is a large benefit to MS while they also get to pretend like it's just a mistake and not having backups makes it your issue, not theirs.
