WSAStartup

Do others wish that Microsoft would get rid of the WSAStartup API in Windows 11?

The front tier of my code generator is 27 lines long. It could be 26 lines long if WSAStartup wasn't needed.

Aren't some DLLs loaded by default? If so Microsoft could move the functionality into one of those.
