Windows App for all New windows Programs?

so can we expect all "NEW" Microsoft software (sorry apps) to now be Windows apps (IE the new ones)

So Microsoft Office 2016 is rumoured to be coming out this year can we expect a full fat full featured version to be launched as a "Windows APP" or will it still be a win 32 "Program" and a crippled cut down version as a "windows APP"

if the new apps allow "sand boxing" and security i hope all the apps included as a default in windows like, snipping tool, notepad, cmd, paint, sticky note, sound recorder, windows dvd maker, windows fax and scan, windows media player, photo gallery, chess, freecell, hearts, ETC, and new "Apps" like Spartan Will ALL be "Windows APPS" and not win32 programs and will not be tied to the OS so we can delete them or even better choose NOT to install them in the first place.

NEED A Minimal Windows core OS with everything else ( Utilities, Applications, Features) as add on package or "APP"
