It has more to do with Microsoft's size and long history. If you are big and have been doing the same thing for many years, naturally you'll want to expand, some of which do succeed.

Google and Facebook have failed to do this, so why is that?

  • Failed to do what?

    I'm sure you can find good analysis of why specific products failed.

    And both Google/Alphabet and Facebook/Meta have a bunch of side projects that are reasonably successful.
