Not the owner, but the one of the principal decision makers for this sort of thing. We're an org that just hit 100 employees and prior to migrating our ancient software stack to heavily utilize 365 offerings we looked into Linux, especially for cost savings. The reason we didn't go with it, and the reason we lean so hard into 365 now, is the traditional Office product. Word formatting, Excel macros, conditional document access, basically everything about the Exchange/Outlook ecosystem, all of it is absolutely necessary for our B2B work. The only thing that comes even close to meeting our requirements is corporate GSuite accounts and using Linux as a fancy, and difficult to secure, thin client for those offerings. So we decided why choose the lesser evil and now pay Microsoft thousands a month to not think very hard.
