The most stable software is code that nobody is working on, but of course, it's also likely to be the most attacked software for the very same reason. What people would need to weigh I would think is the cost of an Enterprise license versus the cost of switching out whatever is needed to upgrade. What do most home users who can't upgrade need in terms of hardware? Is it the motherboard needs to support TPM 2.0 & UEFI Secure Boot? If you switch out the motherboard, won't that also need a new license?
