The fact is MS has paven the way for getting people who uses C# open their  
source by default(lot of code can be disassembled). Reusing them itself is  
a very strong selling point. The market has a will to both reusing C# code  
while keeping the commercial secret. They don't want the others  
disassemble the app and tweak a little bit and rebuild the app(this is  
always possible if you don't strip the IL by only obfuscating it. For  
native cases, you would have a much higher barrier to rebuild others' app).

The first 3 points can be shared with MS if we keep at a reasonable  
consistency with MS stuff.
If we have the C# frontend and major .Net framework API, the tools can be  
built immediately by compiling SharpDevelop, which is also considered to  
be high quality to use.
