Would anyone care to enumerate the MS products that are exclusively
written in C# (or any .NET language would count, I guess)?  How about
ones that are primarily written in C#?

I would guess the number of "important" applications fitting the
former question would be zero and the number of latter would be fairly
small.

Therefore I would also guess that MS investing in C# is not the
"cause" of their software being bloated in slow, then or now.
