    Right, yes - I’m fully aware that LO follows OOXML’s spec (the name “Office Open” being ironic), but that’s still missing the point of what I was saying. If you turn in a homework assignment that your teacher/professor can’t properly read because you saved it using LO and they’re using MSO, its not going to be accepted no matter how much you tell them that its Microsoft’s fault. Same thing if you try to submit a Powerpoint presentation to another department at work. Or if you try to submit a spreadsheet to some government department.

      Honestly the only time I’ve really had that issue is if I’m trying to use an Excel or Word document with a lot of macros. For basic text which is what 99% of people need I’ve never had any issues opening or saving a word document with LibreOffice, and I regularly submit documents to government offices because I work for a county department in my area.
