Sure doesnt sound like that to me.

Not very covert if it is offered to a user.
If MS gives up the key that is stored plainly in their system, that is a problem. But not a backdoor.
This is quite literally the police knocking on the front door and demanding the key.

This is a meaningless, pedantic argument. Call it backdoor or something else, it does not matter. What matters is that it renders the encryption worthless.
