I’m not in Windows, but the Microsoft account is used to light up all sorts of various integration, like being able to sync your settings, themes, favourites, saved passwords, and so on across multiple devices, provide contextual information about things like upcoming calendar events, and more. I get why they want to get as many people using MSAs in Windows as possible, I just don’t really think the heavy handed approach buys much goodwill from users.
