I rather find the apology that Word can be made to function reliably
ONLY IF one reprograms it to be begging the question. It is usually
thought that one buys software that functions without the user having to
fix the program they just spent a few hundred dollars on.

Frame is clunky; Word is quirky.
I have to agree numbered lists are Word's Achilles heal, although I can
(usually) get them to work.
I worked for 10 years at a company where we used Word to create professional
documentation with page counts reaching into the thousands with very consistent
template styles and rare file corruption. We had the advantage of a developer
who could make Word do almost anything and had custom tool bars and automated
documentation generation built into Word. The flexibility allowed by VBA
programming is a great strength of Word.
That said, there is something comforting about the stolid reliability of
FM--once you get it figured out.
