Is It Really Worth Having a Microsoft Account?

I've had run ins with the Microsoft account on numerous occasions especially when trying to buy Minecraft for the kids and having it just change of email address. It's been extremely difficult but also Google has been extremely difficult in this way with previously bought Android apps. The whole concept of having a single account ties to a provider which it can at a whim just break or be taken away from you is scary. But how? How are you going to send emails if you don't have a Microsoft or Google account I suppose you could have a proton mail stop propagating that myth. Oh Jesus. Imagine when support is going to be chat GPT. Yes thank you.
