Google was ordered to stop linking Google Maps from location searches. Some people framed it as the EU forcing pointless extra work on people because you just type in maps.google.com and the same search again. But the thing is, it's fair now: you can just as easily type in maps.apple.com or something else. It's equal effort no matter who you choose for maps, so the market is no longer manipulated.
Same thing here. You could pay Microsoft for Teams but you could also pay someone else for something like Teams, and the friction should be identical, enabling market competition again.
