Yes, I'm Laoshubaby, and thank you for notice my test mentioned in the diary. 

The reason of my interest in how MS Map Builder return data to OSM is because from my tests last year, where the overwhelming majority of edits I made using Map Builder did not make it into OSM—a frustration I voiced in https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Pieter%20Vander%20Vennet/diary/400909. Of course, a tiny fraction was eventually uploaded to OSM via MS employee's accounts after review, such as  https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/132526397. This approach certainly addresses the issue of anonymous vandalism associated with the initially blocked account https://www.openstreetmap.org/user_blocks/5701 , yet it still doesn't favor community contributions and allows MS the opportunity to intercept edits; moreover, I had to wait several days before seeing them reflected.

It's clear from this comment that Microsoft still keep a bit of social responsibility by ensuring their actions do not fragment the OSM community, I am content with this. we can readily confirm at the original site whether there are real changes have been made to OSM, and all recent edits are traceable to specific accounts. Now If we encounter such accounts, we can inform them via a comment to check on the main OSM site to see if their edits are genuinely showing up. Because now even with vandals, it's possible to swiftly block these individual accounts, so it seems that the manual review process at MS won't be under too much pressure.

Sorry for the slow response!
