Your viewpoint isn’t without merit. I think it’s just a cost/benefit analysis issue though. Each platform has its own warts. For Microsoft, they built much of their business on backward compatibility, so breaking with that would be tough. As concerns the cloud, MS does partner with Canonical quite a bit, so it isn’t as if they are dogmatic in their tech stack. This issue seems more of a company one and not a technical one.
