I don't know. Would it be unfair?

Cars are sold with integrated radios and players. But at the same time there were independent companies selling car radios back in times when they were exchangable. Now external players are gone, everything is integrated, and the market for custom car players is dead. And nobody cares! One could say that car manufacturers don't offer the same API for car player companies.

I think that Microsoft is the king of their system, and can do whatever they please. If that doesn't sound practical or trustworthy for a company, then maybe the company just shouldn't release the product on their system. Use a different platform. Because if you release a product on their platform, then you're saying that you're okay with their rules.
