I don't think that's a rational fear. They don't want security problems
with any of their supported products, and the fix for any particular
issue will be similar across all products. It's not that much more work
to patch all of them than it is to patch one.

I wouldn't expect much more in the way of feature improvements for 8.1,
though.

I believe there is enough similarities in the basic systems of Windows
8/8.1 that any problem in Windows 10 would be a problem in Windows
8/8.1. I think you are looking for problems where there are none.
