I'm not familiar with the registry "crime".
Not the crime, the vector. The TLAs have moved on to social media.

DLLs and the registry might make sense when computing is expensive, but not make sense when storage is dirt cheap.
Nothing to do with storage. DOS had a architectural limit and Gates was gaslighting people about that limitation. There was an extended memory kludge.

Windows was a 'reimagining' of Apple's Macintosh OS. Apple used a 'circle of managers' architecture cribbed from the Japanese who got it from W. Edwards Deming. Windows uses a hierarchical structure with a single point of failure.
