I fully believe the EEE problem still exists at Microsoft but fail to see how this feature is a part of that. This has been something OSS maintainers have asked for for ages.

Do you have specific arguments against it?

"sponsor-only repositories, that is, private repositories that only sponsors will get access to" is this open source? Will this help open source? I don't believe so. This fragments the open source community, and creates a paywall for innovation. Further it restricts the ability to enforce open source licensing. Where is the protection for code behind a paywall and which uses copyleft source.
