An ode to Flatpak (and Fedora Silverblue)
Yes, I know of it. I currently use it from AUR. I use CrossOver specifically and only for Office 365 (that and support Wine development). I saw that Bottles does have a winecx build in their list of runners, but I haven't seen an Installer for Office yet, so while in theory I could use Bottles, I'm currently sticking with CrossOver for this specific usecase.

Linux is a life changer
Or just give up and run Office 365 via CrossOver. There's apparently a way to get it working with PoL for free, but with my distro-hopping ways and the fact that I need to do it for work (instead of for fun) I have no patience for that. Plus, it feels good to donate for Wine/Proton development anyways and even better if I have an actual use for it.

What's your opinion on Linux for school use?
For Office, the option currently is either use CrossOver (which is paid, though it can be cheaper with discounts) to install Office or to use a fairly lengthy process to follow the process CrossOver does manually. While I'm currently pinning my hope on Bottles Installer, for now WPS Office mostly works fine as long as you don't work with macros.

Been away from Linux for many years
An example of an installable immutable OS is Fedora Silverblue. Notably, you can change the "distro" flavor of Silverblue to try out KDE and then just flip back to Gnome. Each change is seen as an "update" that just moves you over to the new GUI. The article below explains a bit more.

I need something stable in my life...
I guess something like Fedora Silverblue might offer you something (to paraphrase) "stupid proof". For example, in this case the rpm-ostree rollback command would have been sufficient. Disclaimer: rpm-ostree builds images, therefore it's by necessity slower than apt. Futhermore, until this change is merged and deployed you'd have to reboot for the changes to apply. You might want to look into Distrobox as well, perhaps it can solve your problems without having to change your distro.

Nobara is letting me down lately.
However, I'll add one more that I'm especially fond of. It's one of the most 'stable'\1]) Linux desktop systems\2]) without sacrificing access to the latest kernel-updates and packages. It comes bundled with everything\3]) necessary for productivity right out of the box and is built on top of the fundamentals laid by Fedora's Immutable Desktops. Allow me to introduce uBlue; I know that I'll undersell it regardless, so I recommend you to check the provided link instead.
