Far easier to change and configure all of the privacy and security settings, no forced "feature" updates, only critical security updates get installed. :) While MS does NOT want you to get LTSB you can get keys for it online on eBay and a few other places which are totally legit and legal to use valid keys.
IMO - LTSB is what Windows 10 should be. If I want all the other crap I'll install it. For a commercial business there is in 99.9% of cases NO legitimate need for xbox, candy crush auto installing, and other crap like that yet even Enterprise does that stuff although at least with Enterprise and Education using group policy and other tools you can disable most of it.
