Not necessarily! This might be different in the opposite direction.
The "fact" that v38 is closer to Microsoft has to be shown. Also,
replication of Microsoft was *never* stated as an Infinalit goal.
BTW https://github.com/pdeljanov/infinality-remix
... still no mention of Microsoft as gold standard.
I am just saying what I know: Infinality was never *closer* to
Microsoft than v40.
