I think Excel does do something similar though with Protected View. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/what-is-protected...

Exactly that's why I was making the comparison, It's not a in your face PopUp, where users get used to just pressing the blue, highlighted and glowing "I trust the authors" button without even being told what features they'd miss out on.

The Protected view in Office instead tells you "Be careful" and to only activate editing when you need to.
