The user should be able to decide either
He wishes to appear as free, out of office, or just away . The status should not be decided ..most of the times wrongly.. by teams app and "sync" .

It is not helpful to have it all decided for you and to be offline or away while writing emails .. just because meanwhile, you forgot to cancel the "out of office meeting ".

There are not many features user friendly..where you can choose your style.
I am actually comparing it to the Samsung style of designing a phone -many features, but missing the point.
