No, or only if we were foolishly dogmatic. You seem to miss my point. The idea 
is to help users understand the alternatives. To aid them in making our point. 
This has nothing to do with satisfying any personal interest of mine.

Keep in mind that by the time OpenOffice 4.1.2 is released, LibreOffice may 
have released versions 5.0.2 or 5.0.3 
(https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan#5.0_release).
This may flaw your comparison.

I’m curious—perhaps someone would want to undergo the pain of comparing our 
4.1.2 with LibreOffice’s 5.0.1? A task somewhat beside the point. But possibly 
of marketing use. And also a means by which we and others can evaluate what is 
meant by our respective releases.
