Block OneDrive and SharePoint for groups

"SharePoint does not respect licensing -- it only hides the SharePoint tile from the App Launcher."

That's my experience too. I want to roll out Office 365 Pro+ but we currently use fileshares and, initially at least, do not want users from saving anything to Sharepoint and Onedrive. However, I've not found a way to do this. In addition to the issue you describe (i.e. still allowing saving to Sharepoint / Onedrive even though it's not shown in the app launcher), it also uses Onedrive and Sharepoint as the default save location in Word, Excel, etc - even when Pro+ has been installed using an XML configuration script whcih specifies a local save location. That part of the install script seems to be completely ignored.

Also worth noting that Onedrive and Sharepoint are a single licensing option, so it's not possible to turn one off without the other (and in any case it's still possible to save to them even if the license is turned off for the user).

We would also like to use Teams, but the integrations with Sharepoint and Onedrive are too fundamental for it to be possible at the moment, so we are having to stick with Skype for Business.

It's all very frustrating - the Office 365 services, and particualrly the integration between locally-installed Pro+ programs and the cloudy services - are designed to force you to work in the way Microsoft wants, with little flexibility. If this doesn't fit with how your organisation wants to operate you have a serious problem, with no obvious solution.
