Ha-ha-ha, that's the only reason I do that too. E.g. create a local account first, then sign-in.

I always do that for the same reason. I do use a Microsoft account with Windows, but I want to pick my own name for my own user folder in C:\Users. So I install Windows with a local account, and then after logging in I connect it to my Microsoft account.
