Consolidation is concerning, but this also means there's a good chance Booby Cocktit will be booted out.

...Booted out with a golden parachute, but a boot nonetheless.

A golden parachute so big he could trivially buy into the next company. If he wanted to retire, he would have long done it.

Worse, what if he ends up as the boss fo GamePass or Xbox?

I think Microsoft is aware of the bobby issue enough to not consider letting him run anything of theirs.

No way Microsoft let's that happen. He'll be forced out. The only reason Microsoft looked into this consolidation is because he was running the company value into the core of the earth.
