I think it's more of "we pay Microsoft (or any company) for this. Make them handle it."

It's that kind of thinking that makes shit like the crowd strike problem possible.

Windows server admins: "We pay Microsoft for the service, damn right we'll use it!"

Linux server admins: "We don't pay anyone for the service, hopefully someone else had the same issue and posted about it somewhere..."
