Right. One should uninstall (or unpin if there's no uninstall option)
all the Metro style "apps". For each and every one there's something
better that you can use instead.

I though that part of installing any Windows program was weeding out the
unnecessary stuff.

Most of those programs did not survive the first hour after Windows said
it was installed.

I just installed Windows 8.1 Pro Thursday and am becoming acclimated to
it. Like you, I deleted most of the apps, although the one for maps
looked interesting. Too much on my plate at the moment to dig into it
much.
