Thanks phenomlab. The article you linked had a warning to not uninstall the final Exchange server as that would remove attributes from AD. That's the impression I was under, maybe I misunderstood your comment about that causing an issue when migrating AD to AAD. Obviously uninstalling Exchange would affect recipient management, but does it have an impact on user management?

Additionally, does anyone even know how you'd disconnect a Hybrid AD from AAD so that the synced users become cloud only users?
Yes, I have extensive experience in this. The real issue here is the immutable ID side of things. Do you still have an on-prem Exchange server? If so, that needs to be uninstalled - you can't just power it off.
phenomlab can you elaborate on this a bit? I'm currently wrapping up an email migration to Exchange Online and the topic of just shutting down the Exchange servers instead of uninstalling was brought up. We don't currently have plans to migrate AD as well, but I don't want to limit that possibility in the future.
