RTF has considerably worse portability in OOo than MS .doc. On multiple

That's interesting. I haven't experienced the problems you allude to. I'd appreciate more information on the nature of the problems you alluded to.

However, I wasn't assuming just the OOo-MS connection but the connection between Pages, Nisus, MS, OOo, etc. and when going between all those editors my greatest success has been with rtf when the documents contained formatting.

As an aside I also had surprising success translating .doc documents from Windows MS Word on PC's that weren't readable in Macintosh MS Word on a Macintosh.
