    Here, the true story:

    Well, that's what was reported here:

    Even your link says:

    that acquired a signing key used to hack dozens of Azure and Exchange accounts belonging to high-profile users.
    What wasn't mentioned is what it means to have such a signing key. I.e it enabled them to sign their own keys with which they got access to specific accounts.

      Do you recall the recent Microsoft cloud debacle? For weeks, attackers were able to access virtually all data in Microsoft's cloud services at will - this affected Outlook, Sharepoint, Office365, Teams, OneDrive and third-party applications that offer the "Sign in with Microsoft" function, among others. One might think this would have lead to a loud outcry - a large shit show, but there was none. According to your logic Microsoft's security was good enough because hardly anybody complained. Only a few "paranoid hysteric advocates", so why bother.
      This actually proves it even more how little people give a shit about it, so not directly comparable.

      They will complain insanely fast if some functionality is removed, though.

      If you can add security without removing functionality (or too much performance loss), more power to you. The moment you remove functionality is the moment you should rethink your life decisions.
