If you pay to crossover, they will help you to install Microsoft Office on Linux. https://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/crossover/microsoft-office-365
And I think you need to pay for the support because Microsoft is always doing changes to break the compatibility, and they need to do many patches to make it work. Microsoft is not going to make it easy.
At that point, just use their browser based products.
They have extensive "telemetry" either way.
You can block telemetry requests.
That would also help fund further development of wine and proton.
