I will never forget something I read in his "Hit Refresh" book(I'm Microsoft employee)... He wrote something along the lines, Office should write best app for iPhone, Mac or even Linux if that helps them grow. They should not help Windows sell Windows copies by doing better Office features on Windows, it is up to Windows team to make Windows best operating system, it should not rely and keep back Office team... This makes Windows and Office better, because it allows Office to be free and do what they need to grow, and it forces Windows to improve OS and not rely on others... Just one example where CEO can help teams grow...

That's a nice vision, but as someone who transitioned from a windows to mac a few years ago, I'm sad to report that reality isn't anything like it. Office for mac is lightyears behind what windows has. Both excel and outlook miss critical features (just last week I was looking to change the background of an email - seems that's impossible on mac), or are so much worse in terms of performance (~20mb file with pivot tables) that I'm not sure if I'm running Excel on my m1 mac or if it's a raspberry pi.
