Backward compatibility enables more vulnerabilities in Windows than I can even count.
For example, in the XP days, Windows still came with grpconv.exe associated with GRP files. This utility [checks notes] allows Windows to import Program Manager groups from Windows 3.11 and earlier. Microsoft stopped providing this after I suggested to them that it's a bad idea.pic.twitter.com/N8ySjFAxqF
At that time, Microsoft didn't treat GRP files as unsafe, so IE provided minimal warning before opening them. Chrome, at that time, provided zero warning before opening them. Just a single click was all that was needed.
@scarybeasts helpfully added it to the blacklist in Chrome.
