You're confusing two seperate things - Windows Live ID (now know as Microsoft Accounts) and Hotmail.
Hotmail uses a Microsoft Account to authenticate, just like Bungie.net. So does Live.com email. So does the new Outlook. So does some modes of Windows 8. So does Xbox Live.
Underlying it all, though, are Microsoft Accounts. What's special about the Hotmail change is that normally, you cannot change the login name for Microsoft Accounts if they are hotmail or live.com email address. I'm pretty sure that the migration process will allow you to do so, but to bungie.net, you'll still be the same account.
Whatever the case - the key is Windows Account == Windows Live ID, but Hotmail/Live.com/Outlook != Windows Account, they just use them to authenticate.
lol, that made me lol.
