Microsoft would do _much better by offering a self-hosted enterprise model for businesses. They wouldn’t have to run all this fucking cloud infrastructure, and they wouldn’t be responsible for their cloud being down and stopping multi-billion dollar businesses from functioning.
Business X can simply self-host their office suite and incorporate a VPN to allow tenants to connect to their sanitized local instance of office and access it through the browser. Realistically they’re half way there. They already have the application designed. lol
On the other hand, some businesses would rather offload the manpower, maintenance, and risk to a service provider instead of doing it on-prem by themselves. Really depends on the business though.

All because they want a ‘you own nothing’ business model.

Very true.
