They are, because your listed alternatives are substandard. Just the fact you recommend incompatible LibreOffice as an MS Office alternative is enough, but then comparing KM to system defaults is also a joke.

And terminals are universally so bad at shortcuts that many can't even support all the modifiers keys on your keyboard

What kind of nightmare documents are you encountering that you actually run into MS Office / Libreoffice incompatibility?

And in turn don't also run into to incompatibility between different versions of MS office?

I've had at least as many issues moving complex documents between MS word versions than moving from MS to Libreoffice.
