      Why not? They’re already owning npm, don’t they?

      This is LITERALLY their Embrace Extend Extinguish model. WSL (so in a way, Linux), GitHub, NPM, probably way more that I can’t think of right now will probably all suffer the same fate. They likely never changed their view on open source (remember when Steve Ballmer said that the GPL/Linux is horrible?) despite how many times they say they’ve changed it.
