SPECULATION: Will future Windows replace drive letters?

I have a whole bunch of partitions for different projects, spread across 3 NVMe drives and 4 regular SSD drives of various sizes, and 3 relatively large HDD drives. In total I use 20, yes 20, different Windows drive letters, starting with C: . I'm trying to keep drive partition organization simple, both for backup/restore reasons and because I'm now starting to use Windows Subsystem for Linux.

So here is my speculative question: Will a future windows replace the 24 available drive letters with a folder structure, something like Linux? What would be involved technically? Has Microsoft ever given any indications that they might make this change in a future version of Windows.

For people who manage Windows servers, is drive letter availability an issue now? How do admins work around this issue?

MBR can have 4 partitions on any logical drive
GPT can have 128 partitions on any logical drive.

since windows 2000 we have had dynamic disk, LDM which is similar to LVM for linux
you can have 1000 partitions on any disk that is dynamic on both MBR or GPT

That is a lot of partitions the more you have the slower it works though. You then make folders which can be entry points to those partitions because they don't have a drive letter.

Servers would not really require many partitions either, i fail to see any case where they would need more than 1 or two partitions or even further stray from the default basic partition scheme, it would be very edge case outside of that.

Provisioning is done at the hypervisor so they really only need a standard partition scheme.
