See, there is absolutely no reason for this. It's simply out of spite for their users.
No, it isn't. They don't disable Office on Windows 10 on that date.
They just don't take Windows 10 into account anymore in developing updates to the office apps.
Which means those apps might stop working at some point if an update to them happens to break Windows 10 compatibility.
When Win 11 is such a hostile experience for privacy, yeah it still is out of spite, just for different reasons. I'm so glad to be rid of Windows in my home.
