Oh. That wasn't the answer I was hoping to hear! So if we were to use
this test, we'd be risking something like the following (hypothetical)
scenario...

Suppose .Net 3.5 were, for some reason, incompatible with Windows 8
(although the upward compatible .Net 4.5.3.9 installs fine). Now our
product would not be installable on Windows 8, even though it would work
fine if it were.
