So I think the most useful analysis is to "first principles" this from a Microsoft point of view, and it's not too hard to see the likely endgame. It's something like: Having been unable to defeat free/open software through the courts and copyright, lets try it this way -- let's see if we can, without too many people noticing, gain control of free/open source through its biggest repository with "Copilot." We'll let just enough people who are not us use it in ways that we see fit, but also probably later on will fight against "scraping our data" to retain control (like we tried to do with LinkedIn.)
