I’m not sure I quite understand you, but if you keep the installer and the activation code I see no difference between this version and any other version of Office?

I don't need Microsoft. I haven't used it in over 20 years. I'm not spending the money when I have a free writing program that works just fine.

if you got the offline installer, then maybe you could unless they patch it up on the OS under vulnerability issues.
online installers can simply deny service or remind you to upgrade until they end support.
the point is that is sold as "forever" but then revoked and repeat.

The offline installer has the same effect as a dvd installer doesn’t it? You can install it on say windows 11 and maybe future versions of windows if you’re lucky until the software drifts too far for compatibility. What’s different? There’s a support period for both
