Smart App Control is coming, but the cost is a reset for existing Windows 11 users. Why lock the door when I can just get a new house?
"Any app Windows 11 considers shady will be blocked from opening." <- Yeah, I don't see any problems with that either.

Why bother? No common application requires Windows 11, so just use a good anti-virus/anti-malware combination.
I can see why an enterprise-sized organisation might want to save on the anti-virus fees. However, the cost of backing up, reinstalling from a base image, and customization, must be higher than the TCO for the anti-virus.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

They can avoid that by rolling it out over several years as they issue new machines.
More importantly, that means when they first encounter a 3rd party application that doesn't have MS's seal of approval and that they do need to be able to run, they won't have to revert the entire company back to standard win 11 installs.
This is just Windows RT/Win 10S wrapped up in a new iconname .

One of the best parts of being Forrester’s CEO is that I have hundreds of analysts who help me understand new technology. So I thought I would share the wealth and pass on some of that knowledge to my fellow CEOs. It couldn't be worse, could it?

coco basic here.
For any youngsters in the audience, think your python, etc REPL except with basic instead of python; and it was your OS not just a development environment. And if you wanted to do anything fancier than running code one entered line a time instead of opening up a text editor of some sort you had to give each line of code an explicit number as you entered it.

In my experience:
1) Make decisions when the team is at an empasse;
2) Own your decisions if and when the management comes down complaining;
3) Don't ask your team something you wouldn't do yourself.

What I'm not going to waste time on is virtue signaling or the ridiculous idea that diversity in skin race/gender/orientation has a thing to do with building a successful team. The whole idea that someone's race/gender/orientation brings value to the team is exclusionary and divisive.
I've worked for women and I've hired women and they were in their jobs because they were excellent.
Make excellence your goal ignoring all other factors and you'll succeed.
Leave the race/gender/orientation statisticians to play their irrelevant games.
