Anyone who has ever dealt with Microsoft Outlook will know the .pst file format - it's the binary, undocumented file in which all data from Outlook is stored - emails, contacts, calendar, you name it, it's in there. Microsoft has announced that it will release detailed technical documentation on the Outlook .pst data format.

I'm not assuming anything, and I'm not sure why you're so keen to put words in my mouth.
The fact is that some of the best and most important software out there may not be compatible with this deal, meaning less choice for users. Maybe you don't care about others, but I do.
This also contrasts to the "anyone can use it" marketing we are hearing from Microsoft.
