Because then you could simply generate output with nroff. (I suppose
Word can deal with plain-text files.)

Acrobat Pro has proofing support for PDFs. There are some free PDF editors, too, but they're generally horrendous. Okular supports annotations, but it's KDE-only, and it can't save them to the PDF, only in Okular-specific format.

I do my proofing on dead trees, personally.

btw: You say, it's for scientific papers ... I wonder: don't they use
Latex for them? It's so common in this field of action.

You'd be surprised how poorly supported it is.
