The article is about use in an enterprise. An enterprise runs professional/enterprise/ltsc versions which do NOT steer you to the cloud - what data sovereignty concerns have you seen in those editions of windows/server? They've gone through a lot of pains to ensure those concerns are taken care of for enterprises/governments so i'm curious the ones you think they missed.
You can make the argument for their consumer editions sure, but that's a different product with different features, different price point for different users.
At the enterprise level where this is intended to be ran, things are much diffrerent.
If you're not aware of the differences or use cases, perhaps you're not the target audience who should be using or configuring it.
