I'll throw in my two cents on top of this:

* SPAs: Microsoft has a vested interested in porting a lot of code to SPA applications. Teams being the latest example.

* Windows is dead, long live Windows: A desire for a lighter version of Windows in the near future running on ARM and you suddenly have existing dev tools and code moving to a Chrome OS like environment with little fuss.

* Edge: Is jumping over to chromium and wishes to support existing chrome extensions. What blazor may also allow are some pretty sophisticated download-once applications also coming through that 'store(?' with first class support.

* Linux Love: If linux is the rural America of 2016 then MS is Trump. OSX and Google seem to be locking people in and MS is trying to give more choices.

* Windows is Dead, part 2: Can't stress this one enough. Giving enterprise developers and teams a way out of the legacy sandbox seems to be key.

tl;dr - Re-cut the Star Wars scene of 'Luke I am your father' to Nadella and myself. Change the response to 'Yesssssssss! <hug>'

I feel like I've been licking toads recently. So much crazy going on.
