On SOME distros who handle this a little better/politely, the LO binary has been renamed to "libreoffice", and a symlink from "soffice" to libreoffice (/usr/bin/libreoffice --a custom packaging ) is supplied which can easily be removed.
Actually, the official LibreOffice packages install to their own subtree of /opt by default, so they do not install conflicting aliases (but those packages do still use "program/soffice").
Packages that come with distributions, instead, usually store all binaries in /usr/bin and in that case we have the double "soffice" conflict. I think "unopkg" may have the same problem. This naming is chosen by the individual distributions, even though dropping "soffice" completely may have some (possibly limited) side effects.
