I want to suggest to OWA adding a new recommendation that is to lets users set an 'Always ask' setting when opening links.

For Windows, I use this "browser" app as my default browser. Its main function is to show a list of installed browsers (including customizable options) whenever a link is opened from another app, allowing you to choose which browser to use. It's great! Recommended if you use different browsers for different things https://github.com/mortenn/BrowserPicker

That was a great app to have when my employers company preferred browser was still Internet Explorer, but since most applications were upgraded to be compatible with Edgium now Firefox can handle them as well. So the browser the company doesn’t recommend is now my daily driver.
