The special and verifiable math is that Microsoft put a lot of money into AI and needs to find a way, any way, to get some revenue out of it come hell or high water.

If they can trick devs into using it through bandwagon marketing, that's a good start.

Well, they can start with their code then?

Microsoft Azure AI foundry is clunky, sluggish, breaking changes, and the list goes on.

PromptFlow (which should be their open source AI application framework) last update was more than 3 months ago.
