That seems to be a very common pattern now - for some reason everyone wants to be in your menu bar and they making it increasingly difficult to close.


I won't call this particularly malicious .. but even Chrome is in this game - it asks to "hold cmd-Q" on macOS to quit chrome .. whereas every other app close when you type cmd-Q. My respect scales are tilting way away from Google and Microsoft is looking pretty good relatively.


This is configurable from the main app menu though. It’s nice not to lose all your tabs if you slip and hit Cmd-Q instead of Cmd-W
