Microsoft tends to give companies they acquire as much or as little oversight as Microsoft thinks they need.

When they acquired Mojang they essentially did not change anything. It's basically the same company now as it was before.

Which is weird because they don't seem to understand a lot of the appeal of Minecraft and tend to boil it down to the aesthetic. When seeing talk of Minecraft dungeons, I was amazed that there was no dungeon crafting tool. Seems like it would have added a ton of value to a game and made it far more related to a game about... crafting.
