Address inaccuracies in competitive analysis of Azure DevOps.
- YAML and designer are not "different pipelines". The same orchestrator, agents, and hosted pools run them. The same task and tool ecosystem runs inside them. Once a pipeline gets scheduled to run, in fact, the rest of the system has no idea whether it came from a designer or YAML definition.
- All builds can be linked to work items, not just designer builds. That was an error in my answer which has been corrected.
- YAML is no longer in preview. The "Preview" toggle has been removed.
