Microsoft EmployeeReally disappointing to see this direction of travel from Microsoft.
Python and R visuals gave analysts a valuable bridge between advanced analytics and Power BI, allowing techniques such as statistical analysis, SPC and anomaly detection to be presented directly within the reporting environment.
Moving that capability towards notebooks, apps or custom visual development feels like a step backwards for analysts who want to combine reproducible analytical methods with accessible business intelligence.
I understand platforms evolve, but removing capability without an equivalent migration path risks making sophisticated analytics harder, not easier, to operationalise and share.
