Huge opportunity? Such a huge opportunity that even Microsoft seems to be giving up on the platform?

Clearly you don't know what are we talking about , Compiling/Uploading your app just exact same way you already did many times for new platform/users is something most dev will do , because it don't have any burden. And as I remember they mentioned 100% compatibility , and they even support most of Google cloud service via Microsoft service's with exactly same API .
And I'm sure it'll all work perfectly, and there will be absolutely no reason whatsoever to test your application on Windows devices, right?
Or they could allow installing from apk or third party stores. Though that will help only the more technical users, which doesn't seem to be lumia's target market.
