Unable to join Office Insider with Microsoft 365 Family subscription

I haven't been able to figure out why I'm not given the option to join Office Insider with my Microsoft 365 Family subscription.  Am I being locked out for some reason?  Maybe because I'm in the Windows 11 beta channel?

 

I've followed the instructions at ... https://insider.office.com/en-us/join/windows, but the "Office Insider" box doesn't show up.

    I figured it out.  I actually have Office Insider, it just doesn't show up with the "Office Insider" box.  Instead it shows Current Channel is (Preview).  BTW, the reason I brought this up is I haven't been able to find some of the new features highlighted in the update emails, like the Navigation Panel in Excel.  So it must be buried somewhere.
