Nintendo is perhaps the most anti-consumer major gaming company, followed by Sony and then Microsoft. All things considered, Microsoft ownership is the better of the three for consumers, but that doesn’t mean every decision Microsoft makes is good for consumers.
Nintendo would never sell to them anyways. Nintendo executives are so stubborn they’d dissolve the whole company before selling out to Microsoft or Sony, though if they ever were to sell they’d be far more likely to sell to Microsoft than Sony.
Any company would say that. Literally any company would acquire one of their major competitors if the opportunity arose. The same thing can be said that Sony would also purchase Nintendo if they could afford to do so. This doesn’t mean Microsoft is actively trying to buy them.
Microsoft previously tried to purchase Nintendo already, or they offered some kind of collaboration deal in the early 2000s, and Nintendo declined. Nintendo will always decline sale.

It’s that if they started walling things off now then buying Nintendo would never be approved

So if they are working towards that then logically they would work towards that
