The idea behind this is to take all the negative facts and opinions and put them outside of the main page, so people won't see them.
Yes, that's exactly why they do it. The whole "criticism of X" concept is pretty flawed. It's just not a good subject. "Lawsuits against Microsoft" would be far more interesting and encyclopaedic. But for an article about public opinion of a thing, having only one side represented is dangerous and not useful. Much better to have a bit of "opinion" in the main article, and if there's really so much to be said, make "perceptions of X" or something, where opinions positive and negative can be collected. It should still be a rare occurrence.
