It solves the problem of Microsoft not having a mobile platform in which to lock you in. Unlike their competitors in identity: Apple iOS and Google's Android.
Therefore MSFT now needs an open-ish standard so that it's not dead in the water.
Funny how times have changed.
Isn't Microsoft also objecting to making this a W3C standard?
I'm sure they do object to things from time to time, but my impression from DIF conference calls was that MSFT is the biggest corporate backer.
Google and Apple aren't even members and do not really participate, afaik. https://identity.foundation/
