The decision that never made sense to me was going all-in on WP7 instead of diversifying across MeeGo, WP7 and Android. When push comes to shove, getting Nokia to treat WP7 as a first-tier platform would have bought Microsoft just as big a win as Nokia going all-in. I'd argue it might even have been a bigger win because Nokia would look much less like a rudderless ship about to crash. Maybe Elop didn't negotiate hard enough, maybe he didn't have the vision, or maybe he was too influenced by his time at Microsoft. We'll probably never know.
