In your setup script, just use the "Get System Settings" command to check for Windows 10 capability.
The return variable will hold TRUE if the system meets the minimum capability.

Why is this not in the Application Requirements tab's Minimum Operating System drop down? Why does that max out at 7?

It's quite complicated to discuss the reasons here. Unfortunately, there are several technical reasons.
We are aware of the problem...let's see what happens.
