On the contrary, I'm happy that Slack chose to do one thing extremely well rather than stretch itself thin releasing half-baked an unnecessary products. There are plenty of good services for docs, storage, whiteboarding etc., and I don't need any of them shoved in my Slack client.

But they are not doing it "extremely" well. It's shoddy, spotty, resource-hog. It's (is/was) innovative, but it's no longer an amazing added value over running your own (RocketChet) or picking a cheaper option.
I agree with you, maybe Salesforce will let it continue focusing on its niche. It’s working for Heroku.
