You mean your phone that has its own built-in, unswappable assistant? Since Windows Phone died[0], I can't blame them for getting out of a business where they are immediately outleveraged by the competition.
[0] I say this with lament, because it was IMO a legitimately good phone OS. My Lumia 920 is still my backup phone, 8 years later, because the ones I got after that died before replacement. But the death was certainly not a surprise. Once they started adding more features to Android apps than existed in the Windows Phone versions, the writing was on the wall about where the money was going.
