Not in this case, because many of these applications must produce files that I can share with others, and/or they must work with legacy files that I've collected myself, and/or they must read files provided to me by others. So equivalent functionality isn't good enough: it has to be the same application.
Thank you for supporting vendor lock-in.
At any rate, what you're essentially saying is that you want to run a particular application so no matter what happens this is what you must have and use. Do don't even bother asking people who will suggest alternatives, because it's not what you want to hear. Use what you're going to use. *shrug*
