How does it been in the cloud make it any worse. User management is user management I don’t really care if it’s hosted locally or not. I’d prefer it to be hosted locally but I’d take Entra over not having it at all.

The big difference is the gaping Grand Canyon sized feature gap between M365 and on-prem AD. Sure you can enforce some desktop policies via Entra but rarely the specific one you're after. And if all you're really using AD for is central authentication and you're not using group policy much anymore, alternative options start actually being options

I'll be the first Linux fan to say it's better to manage windows from windows, and that includes using the Windows Server stack to manage your Windows clients, but Microsoft's really making that less and less compelling as they move everything into the cloud and off of local software and instead into less featureful web apps. At some point it makes far more sense to just kick them to the curb and instead deal with the wonkiness of Linux where at least you get control over changes and updates
