But who is to say *your* method is better? I can definitely see
situations where someone would *want* the formatting from the

In many cases this is true, but if you take that too far... why
provide the option to have 3rd party fonts?
The bottom line is, just because *you* would do something a certain
way doesn't mean everyone else will want to do it your way.
Of course, you are right, which is why I said it is "elitist" to think
that *my* way is the *best* way.
I suppose people can still build spreadsheets by inserting numbers into
cells and then pulling out their pocket calculators to add up the column
of numbers (I've seen my students do that).
Or they can individually format all of the paragraphs of 20 or more
individual documents to write a book.
Liberty means the freedom to do things the hard way if you want. I won't
deny anyone that freedom. But, if I can save them from it, I will.
