As far as i can tell, Open office has a program to open its

opens.
No, it's the exact opposite. OpenOffice.org is one big program.
However, there are some tiny little Writer, Calc, etc., programs
that do nothing but call the big program with a request to start a
word-processing document, a spreadsheet, etc..
Has OO always followed this architecture?
Yes, even back in the days that it was called "StarOffice", came from
a small company in Germany, and was most famous for being the top
office suite for OS/2.
