I'm half surprised they didn't try switching to o365 for their users, while keeping the linux desktop distro, and allowing for exceptions for specific use cases.

They require lots of very specific applications. From what one hears (Munich native here), many of them are pretty bad.

Now, being bespoke apps, they'd probably just as horrible if they if they were Windows apps, but it just gets rolled into the Linux blame.
