Since Microsoft skipped Windows 9 to make Windows 10, the old wisdom that “even number Windows releases suck” apparently held true to become “odd number Windows releases suck”.

Basically, imagine the paper is the fabric of the universe. Now imagine it’s a box, instead of a flat paper. You fold it the exact same way, but because you need to fold the two-dimensional paper in one dimension higher (3D) than the physical medium of paper, you would need to fold the three-dimensional cube in one dimension higher (4D) than the physical medium of space.
Does that make sense?
