Microsoft should be way more careful with messaging

>"From the way it was presented to the general public, it sounded like there’s no actual reason to develop “native” (UWP) Windows apps anymore"

Kevin Gallo made clear in one of the sessions that those briges are not the best way to run an app in Windows 10. That the idea was made for apps that are not going to change or as a first approach to support the platform. But in order to use all the features that Windows 10 offer (Cortana, Inking, etc.) you would need to write an universal app.

The point is that this should be said during keynotes - the only thing that public sees. Only devs see breakout sessions, not decision makers.

Build is not a wide public conference, it is intended to be for developers. Ignite conference (which is this week) is the one for decision makers (http://ignite.microsoft.com/#fbid=OzEF049y498).
