The move to the Windows store makes the purchase easier for most people and lessens support time that needs to be spent with users farking up Serial #'s, having activation issues, etc. It's just good business to make the software easy to install and less of hassle to upgrade.
I'm one of those "Tech savvy" nerds you speak of and I much prefer having it on the windows store, rather than needing to always download/install each little update.
For those who want to backup the executable, it's not hard to find.
And yeah, Krita 5 is super nice for a free product, but not a patch on Artrage Vitae. Especially in the UI area.
