    Although this gives further options, I have never been in interested in the 'Home' editions.
     
    When I started computing with Windows back in 2001/2002 it was with the XP Pro edition.   Then in 2007 I got a custom build with XP Pro installed, even though I was offered Vista, when ordering the custom build.  
     
    Skipped Windows 7, 8 and 8.1. Now, I have Windows 10 Pro [ which is standard] on the Surface Book laptop. 😉

    Similar for myself. I have had Win Pro installed on my XP and 7 laptops and intend to use the Pro version when I eventually gravitate to W10.
     
    It seems there is a major advantage in using Win10 Pro over the Home version, in that you have greater control over when you update to the latest and greatest version of W10. As will be obvious, I am not an early adopter and have no intention of being a beta tester for MS whilst they sort out the bugs in each new version.
