And not being able to log into my own fucking machine if I lose internet access, or if Microsoft servers are on fire? Absolutely fucking not.

If? As someone who works for a Microsoft CSP there is no if, it is always a when.

But in all seriousness the you don't auth to ms when you login. You have a local pin that only works on that system.

Yeah I know my internet craps itself out every now and then, it's just a fact of life. I like my things on my machines to work regardless of that.

Anyway, that second explanation, doesn't sound much better. Then again, I don't think I'm going to use Windows again when 10 goes EoL.
