The callback you're redirecting the user to at the end of that flow is forgeable if an attacker knows an azure tenant ID of a different customer, and putting a "Never use the tenant ID value of the tenant parameter to authenticate or authorize users" warning in the docs is only helpful as long as a way to authenticate users exists.
I am talking about the most basic capability of a professional presentation tool like exists in Webex, or GotoMeeting or Zoom. And requested...

Well, when you're already paying Microsoft $/user/month for Intune, Teams&co. you might as well use Azure too.
Only one vendor relationship to manage, and I suspect you probably have to spend far less money than you do with AWS to get some personal attention.
Anyone that's had to deal with Microsoft will tell you this means nothing
If you can even get attention from someone, you'll be bounced between teams and people who barely know the products they are "supporting"
Don't get me started on the Azure and O365 management portals
The only worse support experience I've had was with Oracle where it could take days just to get the boilerplate "send us your logs" response on a Sev1 issue, despite the logs already being provided in the initial ticket
In both cases, this is while at F100 companies with millions of dollars of licensed software and premium support contracts
In relation to everything you said in your post, let's just say "trust me, I know".
But you missed the point I was making.
The GP said "Makes me wonder why enterprises still flock there".
And anyone who's had to deal with enterprise procurement knows if you've got a vendor on the list then its easier to deal with that one than push for multiple.
And then there's the whole budgeting thing. If management can see you're already buying every single employee in the org a Teams license, then getting extra budget for some Azure toys will probably be an easier sell then "yeah, I know we're paying Microsoft a lot of money, but can we have some AWS too". Since in their eyes Azure and Teams licenses is the same thing, "money for Microsoft".
Sadly the tech desk experience in enterprises tends to fall low down the list, if it is considered at all.
Sure, in theory, if you've got a good CTO to fight your corner then YMMV, but not everyone does.
Amazon doesn't and regardless nobody feels comfortable using Google, who knows when they'll discontinue a product we would rely on.
So not a lot left to choose from.
likely been active since the inception of these capabilities
wonder if the recommendation to "add randomness to resource names" is because of this (unrelated security by obscurity lol)
The cloud:
Let’s see how their platform design holds up in the coming years, and if it can hold up to LLMs doing more of this same type of discovery and whether MSFT can fix it.
Microsoft had an egregious cross-tenant vulnerability (really, how many cross-tenant vulnerabilities did other clouds have?).
Vulnerability was reported.
They fixed it - incorrectly. Reported again.
They fixed it this time... and broke the previous fix. So it's vulnerable again.
What a clown show.

And this is just the Azure / O365 stuff - there's been thousands of Windows client/server and Office software exploits across the same time period
Should have been addressed in the Geneva conventions.
Reporting “theoretical” issues with validation as an Employee gets you a lot of questions as to why you were looking.
Oh well.
That explains a lot.
Microsoft still has employees ? ;)
(Sorry. Low bar. But in all honesty I thought they outsourced the majority of ops. I was surprised to hear in recent news that they actually had that many employees left)
