That's kinda what I'm thinking. It's just a new app that is part of Microsoft Office but also available standalone. Pretty sure you can also just... not install it during Office install, just like all of the other apps. They all work independently of each other.

Except Outlook only lets you add Teams meetings to appointments, not Zoom, for example. Teams is prioritised in several other parts of MS Office suite

You can actually add zoom meeting links to outlook by default. I do it every day at my company, and we don’t use Teams at all.

I've got the new Outlook interface and it's not there. There are only three tabs on the top: Home, View and Help. The only online option is Teams, as in this screenshot

It's a third party plugin. It's not there by default. You need to manually install it.

We use Outlook and have plenty of zoom and Google meetings connected to outlook appointments.

Nah, this is wrong. You can add Zoom calls to outlook appointments.
