We cannot tell if the currently most profitable divisions would become that profitable under Ballmer.

That's the whole point - Satya somehow was able to develop the platforms through acquisitions and business vendor lock much better than Ballmer ever could. And we saw what happened with Windows division under Ballmer - it was profitable but it had no future. MSFT could become another IBM.

With Ballmer we could get some Windows hubris like "Azure only with Windows OS license" or something.

My only issue with Satya is that he is not "a cult of personality" type of person like Jensen Huang or Phil Spencer. He is basically a guy who "walks softly and wields a big stick".
