You should allow Microsoft to reskin the Win7/Win8 OS line to better protect us all from malware and future cyberattacks.
Win7 and Win8 contain so-called "Zero-Day vulnerabilities", big security flaws that can't be readily patched given the OS' inherited architecture. These won't necessarily go away, but much Win10 code is new. Post-installation, I notice the registry size is 50% of Win7's, itself 50% of WinVista's. A lot of junk code gone. And the bi-monthly "Patch Tuesday" event will become a thing of the past because the NSA, through Microsoft, will roll out OS code revisions as needed.
My hardware dates from 2005-09. All run it without issues.
