I suppose they think they can gather more information on user habits and user interaction with onedrive to determine how to reduce user loss.

If so, they should pay for Q/A and/or focus testing themselves. Not freeload off from forcing users.

I can already see that this won't gather them any data that is actually useful for analysis.
