Removing Microsoft's copyright violates the license, that's pretty much the point of open-source licenses. You can add your own copyright but not remove the copyright of others. Otherwise I could just fork any of your open-source projects and remove all references to your name, and by your logic in removing Microsoft's copyright it would be allowed…

Also you can't remove the notice that "Selawik" is a reserved font name, otherwise you could remove any reserved font name by forking the font, changing the name, forking your fork and changing the name back to the original one
