Well, they had enough time to refactor EF Core to use code generators. F# is improving on .NET 11, but still not fully there, as contrary to the rest of .NET, it is mostly community driven. Most Microsoft shops only consider Microsoft GUI frameworks, regardless of the great work done by Avalonia, and Uno as well. As for being bad, they surely are much better than most competitors from other ecosystems, unless we're adding Delphi, C++ Builder, Qt into the picture. I had projects with Java on the server and Microsoft GUIs on the desktop, for example. Swing and JavaFX are also quite good, however require additional programming for what Forms and WPF do out of the box, unless one is willing to pay for something like JGoodies.
