"use the link or cancel the attachment"

The criteria where you would want to "cancel the attachment" here, is when a link would have been inserted in it's stead.

I'm not upset. I am utterly bewildered at how a (presumably) functional adult in 2024 doesn't understand basic email or how cloud drives work.

In looking back I realize that you're one of those people who confuse emphasis with anger. I can't really help you there. Out of curiosity, are you the type of person that reads a sentence with a period at the end as aggressive in a text message?

You say something like: "I think we should do x"

Person replies as: "Ok that should be fine."

Do you read the response as aggressive (active or passive)?

I'm perfectly aware of how it works. My whole comment was a proposed way to manage it that doesn't assume that everyone who uses outlook wants to use MS's cloud service just because they also happen to use Outlook. I'm not sure how you missed that.

As for emphasis, "Press fucking backspace!" has a whole lot of it. I certainly would consider that, and not your hypothetical, as actively aggressive.
