The title is a little clickbaity - the behaviour can be changed:

“ Ultimately though, if this experience isn't right for you, you can turn off this feature the first time it launches in Microsoft Edge, and then in Outlook settings at any time after that. ”

Absolutely a conference room decision to try to push more people to their browser. Apple see their OSes as a way to sell hardware. Microsoft very clearly sees their OS as a way to sell ads. I was hopeful for a sec as aspects of Windows got better and better, but the amount of junk that's appeared lately really feels user hostile. I don't want to "stay up to date with news and interests" in the dang start menu. No one ever has.
