But worse than a real revision control system like git in every way except UI (although I find Word's track-changes and comments interface and presentation to be really clunky and maybe as user hostile as so many say git's CLI UI is)

Agreed about revision control; I wish there was GIT for .docx for situations when you can't use plain text / LaTex.
I do like Word's comments interdace. I wish there was a format for replying to comments in code (aka "comment conversations"), so that IDEs could render them similarly to how Word / Google Docs do.
(I am genuinely looking forward to a vim/emacs user telling me that they have been using such a format for the last 30 years!)
