Assessment Reasoning
The update changes invite handling for Teams events by separating emails based on roles, which will affect organiser workflows and may require user communication. Admin impact is moderate since no configuration changes are required, but documentation and user notification may be needed. Users will experience a noticeable change in how they receive invites, so training or clarification may be necessary. Urgency is moderate as rollout scheduling moved later, giving more time for preparation.
