While this makes sense what the parent comment said is also true.

I always wondered why big enterprise customers are not concerned about lock in. Maybe they cut multi year deals with the big cloud providers?

Have you ever been part of a large scale migration? Even if you try your best to avoid “lock in”. It’s still a multi year, expensive proposition and at the scale of a F500, it adds little business value.

Do you know how many third party services and offerings that the typical F500 depend on? More than 80% have a huge “lock in” to Microsoft.
