Why is Microsoft-submitted code to the kernel the primary source of the reduced stability and reduced security of Linux.

That's a ~~bold statement~~ big generalization. Can you substantiate that claim?

Granted, I have just as much disdain for Microsoft as you apparently do, perhaps even more, and I do agree with your other points, but that claim in particular seems odd.

And besides, seeing how the senior Linux developers have final say on what gets added to the kernel, then we (the Linux community) would only have ourselves to blame for this "reduced stability".
