This reads a bit much like an ad. I sure have to scroll through a lot about Microsoft, Cloudflare, etc. before the funny password requirements I came for, at the verrrry end.

Yeah especially using that Microsoft service. Takes me back to M$ sponsored tech talks where they had to use MSN search and not mention the G word.
This is a Microsoft sponsored tech talk. Advertising for MS is one of Troy's businesses, as he discloses in his bio on the page. And the banner at the top says this particular post is sponsored by Cloudflare.
As a side note, uBlock Origin blocks the sponsor banner which makes sense, but also makes it so you can't see the disclosure.
I thought that was the case!
I once attended a MS workshop at my school on Azure. The speaker kept saying “open x page in Edge”, until there was a page that didn’t render properly with Edge. He was very hesitant to say Chrome.
