MS is doing the same to Outlook users too at some point. Its a much better app. Windows mail/calendar were an oddity. Remember outlook express?
Sometimes when I drink enough I can forget
An oddity that has been around for a while. It was a fairly simple client on Windows 10 too. We used to use it for my mum to access her Gmail as it was so simple.
Moving from a local client to a Web based client is all about moving windows and it's software to a cloud based service. For that to work all your data needs to be remote in the cloud too. This is about what is good for Microsoft, not it's users.
