If we think about it, the place where the settings are grouped is the control panel. If you change its name it's still the same object - but with an new name. If you change its layout it's the same thing, but with a new layout. If you keep the old layout and name but take out some of the contents and put them in a version with a new layout and name they're still the same thing - but now split into two for no good reason. If eventually you move the remainder of the content to the new design and dump the old one, what you have remains what it always was. It's still the bloody control panel. The function, a place where adjustment to settings can be found, is the same as it always was.

There has been no substantive change other than in name and layout.

The underlying reality is that Microsoft are unable to distinguish between substantive change and superficial change.
