Thanks for the post reply. It does seem to be a workaround, albeit a crappy one. First, there should be no need since a group email should just work. I can imagine what some of the technical hurdles might be. But on a practical basis, I can also imagine a scenario where someone is in a group but then no longer is. Instead of those approvals just no longer being visible, they would remain on his/her Teams view.
I will play with this to see if I might use it, but may shift away from approvals altogether. Ugh.
