I can see it being "Recommended", i.e. Microsoft recommends you allow them to recommend you upgrade to Windows 10, but certainly not Important. And I've never seen the class of a Windows Update change retrospectively.

Yes, it would be an automatic install for the majority of people, but the majority of people aren't the ones complaining. It's the ones who oppose the idea of Microsoft deploying additional software to their system, yet choose to allow Microsoft to deploy any software to their system that are complaining.
I got it wrong sorry. it was an optional update from March until May, when it changed to Recommended, and thus part of a normal Windows update for machines MS deemed "eligible".

And I understand what you are saying. I think most users trust Microsoft to deploy updates as they see fit and maybe this one could've been a bit better. The option to say "No, and go away" to the Windows 10 button would be welcome.
