I have a copy of Office 2016 Home & Office and I needed a MSFT ID in order to activate it. It seems the product key is then tied to that MSFT ID. So, when I leave my company this copy of Office is going to stick with my ID and cannot be activated by a new employee unless I forfeit the license.
I suppose you may have bulk licenses which may not require the MSFT ID.
OEM installs require the ID it seems: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2016-office_install/install-office-2016-oem-without-live-account/139e1c25-86ae-49de-ab1a-3d8f03218fa9?page=1 http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2016-...
And so do retail licenses: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2016-office_install/repeat-install-office-2016-home-and-business/f8dc8e1b-8011-48b0-b019-c5546f0f6c74 http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2016-...
