You say that like Microsoft isn't an incredibly deeply dysfunctional company with absurd turf wars and conflicting interests between all the teams. You'd think it should be sufficiently integrated, but it's likely office politics made that impossible. How about be glad we got this at all as a first step, then maybe it will build momentum towards a better integrated solution?

You forgot that because of backcompat this solution will now become the unchangeable standard for years and anything more integrated will be in addition, not a replacement.

And that's OP's fault how? We often have to work with the environment and framework we have, not the one we wish we had where we could just immediately implement the best possible solution.

Why should we be glad that Microsoft is not functional enough to make a decent product...?
