It makes perfect sense to do what they do! And in all honesty sometimes they grind for a very long time before achieving true success (see: Xbox). That said, people don't always realize how many things Microsoft tries (and subsequently abandons, because of course not all of them are going to be a success). That .net core was a success is clear now; but you could've easily believed that UWP will be a success and invested in it (in fact, I know teams who did, with really bad consequences for them). What I say is... just wait a bit. In the early days, not even Microsoft knows what will succeed, and they will "sell" their new initiatives very hard (of course!).
