There are different divisions in Microsoft and these do different things. The division gave us F# (that I am eternally grateful for) is not the same that gave us Windows (that I am never going to forgive). These things can coexist.
You could say that about a democratic country. But Microsoft, like any corporation, is a dictatorship.
F# is public relations and research - so you get to enjoy the fruits. But the day it gains any strategic importance, it will be used and abused for that purpose.
