I fear that's not entirely true. There are some facilities in later
versions of Microsoft Office which can be saved in .docx etc. formats
but not in .doc etc. formats. If your correspondents are making use of
these facilities, that content will be lost if you convert their
documents to the older file formats.

But then LibreOffice does not support these facilities neither. The supported features in MSO before 2007 and LibO/OOo are very close and so are the file formats. The main purpose of OOXML is incompatibility while having something with "Office" and "Open" and "XML" in the name.
