the best thing on this is that clown only can disturb early in the morning and after school during weekdays. Late at at night, children must sleep. The weekend might be some kind of unknown because school or kindergarden is closed. Simply let us go with the mess until RTM, which automatically defines the end for it temporarily. W9 might come at a time when some children are grown up or brought to well known terrorist camps
I also do not believe that a next leak will show up until official preview. Time is too short to get out a testing system into the wild and collect new data for implementation into the preview.

The only time between preview and RTM will be interesting again seeing things being removed or added like Start button or similar cosmetics Spoiler
