They are being cautious with their statement but this is really part of the "Dump Trump" trade.

Wait until this starts to significantly impact our ability to borrow money and finance our debt.

Yeah, good luck. Microsoft Teams has been changing rapidly. I doubt the French government will be able to keep up. The software will be outdated before the deployment is even finished. They'll use it for 5 years before they give up and go back to a software vendor.

Have there really been that many worthwhile releases for Teams? Security updates aside, videoconferencing is definitely a thing that can just be "done" depending on what their needs are.

You don't necessarily need to "keep up", you just need to solve your business problem.
