Sneaky Microsoft renamed its data slurper before sticking it back in Windows 10

Can anyone advise me on this please:-

If left in situ, how do the various telemetry systems react to long term isolation from the internet?

Do they only report when they can? Do they cache information for transmission when possible?

Is any cache time/volume limited and where is it?

In other words what is the possibility of the machine eventually becoming mired in MS excrement? After 30 years exposure to (the outer fringes of) MS systems, one thing I have learned that they are not good at tidying up after themselves.
