This is a popular opinion that I tend to agree with on a personal preference level, but Microsoft's userbase across Teams and Skype is still much larger than Slack's... so they're certainly not doing a very bad job outside of the realm of HN opinion.
Salesforce is probably banking on a similar bundling tactic to 365, which makes the sale seem like a tactical move reflecting the reality that better doesn't always matter. Plus Microsoft is also working on a CRM to rival Salesforce.
