"The one is only still on 7 because Apple won't allow reversion back to 6."
Most people like free updates but the 'no going back' cause is simply too totalitarian.
I'm all for free updates, as long as they are improvements. 7, AFAIC, is a visual disaster. My iPad mini, which was updated to 7, is basically unused. It used to be my primary portable device. I try it form time to time to see if the new OS grows on me, but it doesn't.
They really should allow a user to revert to a backup that includes a previous version of the OS. It shouldn't be that hard, but they are after numbers to show how many people moved up (albeit in number only IMO).
There are many Apple users around the globe who don't live near an Apple Store where they can go and check out the new OS. There are also lots of users who see the "recommended for all users" note and click OK.
And I wish there was a way to turn off the badge showing the OS update is ready to install.

Did you HONESTLY not know what it looked like before you decided to update? There had only been about sixty gazillion articles about it.
