They're just saying that. Microsoft promised a lot for Minecraft as an example, but decided to start over-reaching in almost every manner.

This. It feels like every major acquisition of this type starts with all these promises and then the next quarter the company leaders remember their bonuses are tied to stock price and they conveniently forget every promise.

those promises don't constrain them in any way other than PR. They can promise anything they like and are completely free to do whatever they want after that
