Because the UI & workflow might differ. It will not be the same as Windows 10. Getting to know about new features and new workflow will help users to adapt well to the OS.

All New Start Button and Task Bar

The start button is not only an identity of windows but, also an immediate helper to all of its users. You can go anywhere and access any file in your system quickly using the start button.
