If the user does end up requiring Office then don't rule out M365 Family.
  Even though a subscription($99/yr), that same subscription can be 
shared with 5 other users(owner can invite 5 others to download install 
on their devices).
  i.e. that $99 annual cost spread across 6 people is ~$17 per user per 
year.  Compare that cost with the perpetual version of Office 2024 which 
is single use(one user), one pc - Office Home(no Outlook) is $150, Office 
Home and Business($250).
  e.g. M365 Family shared with 3 people needing/using Office Home is 
$33-34 yr(or 165 for three years(total cost 3 yrs $300) vs 3 people 
buying a perpetual version $450.
