F you, Microsoft. I DON'T WANT OUTLOOK TO CHECK MY SPELLING OR GRAMMAR AND I DISABLED IT. DO NOT TURN IT ON AGAIN.

TIL if you *just play* with Microsoft Teams's new(ly highlighted) feature "file Forms" and make any field required, you can easily block everyone's work on the Team. Even without saving the form when you're done playing.
