Ok, let's review:
1) Microsoft has had numerous cannonicalization issues in the past
2) Microsoft has a Trusted Computing focus now, the ostensible purpose of which is to make their products more secure
3) Given 1) and 2), Microsoft should have concentrated extra testing in the specific area in which this bug occurs.
Point 3 is derived from a principle called learning from one's mistakes. If you repeatedly screw up something, and want to stop screwing it up, you look at what you screwed up and work extra hard to prevent that.
