signed doesn't mean encrypted

as I understand it the binary would be inspectable and comparable to the original, there would be a signature portion added which is a kind of hash of the binary and the signing key, which can be verified against the public portion of the Microsoft key and the binary itself. No real scope for Microsoft to return a modified binary.
