Yes, you are NOT stupid. You are NOT stupid. That's enough? ^-^

News flash , it's not me, Libre Office is stupid. As in, by not being compatible with MS Office, none of the third party stuff works, I cannot exchange files with colleagues (working on files, collaborating) etc etc. Keysight has several great plugins where you can directly connect to instruments and automate them directly from MS Office... Etc, etc. If I lived in vacuum, and all I was doing was creating documents from the scratch and when done sending people PDFs of final documents Libre Office would be fine. But I don't.
Therefore MS Office for me.

Me too, and I'm happy with LO all the years! And LO is also not stupid! :-DD
And now? :horse:
Belive me, that's all a subjektive perception and familiarization.
Peace ...
Edit: But stop, there is one big difference. Excel is MS(proprietary), and LO is ODF(ISO)

I didn't say I LIKE it more. I don't. If anything, I like older (menu type) interface in L.O.better. L.O. is perfectly enough for what I do, writing and calc wise..
One problem (not primary) is that Office add-ons by third parties don't work. Second (primary) is that is most of the people that I work with use MS Office. So they send me Word files that fall apart and Excel files that doesn't work all the time, and if I send them something it doesn't work for them. Then I have to be IT support for them and waste time on that too. That's it. Not even my choice, other made it for me.
Regards,

Yeah that's the trick of ms. And I'm principally not involved in that. Fortunately, I don't have an employer who forces me to that.
Thanks :)
