Can you give an example where Microsoft has been innovating? Innovation mean 'novel change' and I've not seen anything outside Azure that was even the slightest bit novel. Balmer was not a risk taker, but the Azure and VS teams have been turning that ship, but it'll be years yet before I acknowledge anything as novel.
BTW a logical fallacy cannot apply to a personal value judgement.
