It's the exact opposite imo. I'd imagine that doesn't really make a difference considering Edge is cross platform, and their goal is to collect as much data as possible.
Plus, they just collect different kinds of info through Windows. So Windows + Edge is even worse, especially since it integrates just as deeply into Windows as IE did years back.

Bold of you to assume that Microsoft cares about resources. Have you seen how much RAM Windows 11 uses at idle? (not including cached data)

The whole OS is a waste of resources.
