I have a Microsoft account for OneDrive, and if that account ever gets banned — say, a defective algorithm thinks I've uploaded pirated content when I haven't — I don't want to also lose access to a game I've already paid for. Right now, the accounts are separate.
It reminds me of people who lost access to their e-mails and photos for making YouTube comments (a completely unrelated service).

So far this is the most convincing argument to me. This is why unified accounts are problematic. If you get banned in one place, you get banned in all completely unrelated places too.
