These are generally more akin to said bloggers hoping for radical move Xyz rather than there being a well-argumented reasoning. Radical moves in the technology business don't happen very often, but when they do, there's generally a good reason for them.

That's exactly the same problem that SUN had when they open sourced Java, Solaris, etc. As SUN has proved, to open source a multitude of different systems are possible, but take a lot of hard work and dedication and negotiations where money is involved. But it is possible. SUN has done this.
This is not an issue if MS really wanted to open source. They could do it if they wish.
