Microsoft has always been making calls. This is why you see plenty of games being published by MSFT on XBLA. Or timed exclusives. BattleBlock Theater, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, and State of Decay is all recent examples of this.
They specificly have publishers looking for potential in these games before release and it has been stated months ago.
XBLA has been huge this generation and always has been respected for it. The complaints was about policies from a few indie devs. Customers was never the ones complaining.
