yes. and it works decently. but again, the point wasn't about "what alternatives are there to use" but the "why is this the differentiation between student and home" --- I bet 99% of the home users could also go without Outlook - while for students the teams & onedrive integration with outlook is by far more useful than it is for home users. And yes, teams works for most usecases, but not for handing in your papers / ppt's / etc. you have to send to your prof - which works incredibly well with outlook&onedrive in tandem though.
I just think Student&Office should be one version while home is separated and not "student" vs "home/office use" where the later get outlook and the former don't. I mean, there are more "office tools" which could have made the differentiation factor (visio, planner, access - and who even uses one-note anymore?
) so I just don't get the reasoning behind it being outlook.
