I worry about political compatibility.
For example note their Acceptable Use Policy:

"Our acceptable use policy is one of zero tolerance."
...
"   Unauthorized distribution or copying copyrighted software, violation of US export restrictions, harassment, fraud, trafficking in obscene material, drug dealing, and other illegal activities."

- zero tolerance == zero thinking.
- applying U.S. laws to Canadian sites is unacceptable.
- civil disobedience action discussion would be prohibited.

Also, on their

page, microsoft is listed.


No argument with your other points - sounds great.
