i think the differents is the lak of technical responses on the github issue from ms employees on why this was cut. This leaves only politcal reasons, which the normal ms staff don't make.
I agree. It is indeed a bit worrying. I am guessing everyone is quiet because Microsoft wants to give a single unified response. And needs some time to prepare and make a decision.
I just hope this will get resolved soon without any issues and we can move on.
