I used to work in a public institution and I can't fathom how this could be done until 2027. There's just so much cruft hinging on .doc and .docx files. Maybe for entirely new processes if software enforces this.

It overwrote the sd reader's vendor driver blocking all storage access from working whatsoever. From one week to another more or less all devices refused to boot. They basically killed our entire company for half a week, until IT could walk people through efi-disabling the sd reader in every laptop (recent industrial models mind you) just because windows had pulled in the wrong driver. So... no - it's not great at all with automatic driver installation in windows ...
