I don’t really agree with it not being confusing. Offline mode should be the default behavior of Onedrive when nobody is logged in because if nobody is logged in there’s probably nobody wanting to use the service. Having to log into the service to tell it “I don’t want to use you” is stupid.
If there was a news site spamming your email with clickbait articles and the only way to stop them from spamming your email is by logging into the news site to let them know you don’t want their news you’d probably call that stupid. You should be able to stop their spamming without needing to log in.
It’s not confusing when you just accept that you have to log into somewhere just to turn it off.

You see, this guarantees that you have an account with the service, which means Microslop gets to report rising user engagement numbers.
Does it matter that the “engagement” was telling them to stuff their Onedrive where the sun don’t shine? No, not at all! A new user logged into the service. That’s all they care about.
