Microsoft is adept in the art of embrace, extend, extinguish. And they still have enormous resources compared to most open source projects (as opposed to open source deployments). Open source still has what may be critical, focused points of failure. Low bus number (as in, taken out by) focii and junctions. I'm not up to speed on the latest changes.
