This is a perfect illustration of a company which is obviously genuinely thinking through its own process and operations from a set of values and principles. Most companies are going to use off-the-shelf products like Sharepoint and this type of off-the-shelf solution, usually being so poorly designed to the point of unusable, signals to front-line employees "we don't actually care about you guys using this to enrich your sense of community and collaboration, we just did it because companies seem to have these things".
Now contrast that to Stripe who's actually expending cycles and real labor to solve what they've deemed a real problem or at least a tangible goal for their org.
Stripe is an awesome company, I can only hope the rest of the industry will take notice of their culture and process. But even if the rest of the industry doesn't take notice Stripe will continue to attract better talent and get higher quality output from their people because of this type of care and consideration.
