They collaborate because they have been forced to, not because they are collaborative. That's a significant difference.

Once they regain their market share you will see their true character.

This is exactly my worry.

I'm not sure you can't actually see their true character though. Look at the deafening silence and corporate opinion on telemetry criticism and the acres of forum posts dedicated to making windows stop calling home. That's an abusive relationship if there ever was one.
