Microsoft easily has the resources to write 5 chat app UIs.

That's a hopelessly simplisitc way of looking at the situation. Every team at Microsoft has different levels of resources, and some would rather spend those resources improving their product rather than writing and maintaining 5 different versions of the frontend part of their product.

That's typically the smart choice.

I really don't care about Microsoft's internal organization or what team has how many resources right now.
