I expect this will be still buried down within sub-screens of OOBE. MS won't let this go so easily. They already captured enough users with MS accounts and such users won't simply be logged out and given local offline accounts.

For such users nothing will change and they'll be still exposed to all darkpatterns and shenanigans. This "kind" move is just for power-users.

Assuming of course this will actually happens and Hanselman won't be told "no".
