I hate to say it, but I think in business MS compatibility is THE paramount
concern. When I was working for a large business, I used LibO only for
documents I knew I didn't have to share with others. For anything that had
to be used by others, I used MS Office.
I realize that LibO is highly compatible with MS Office, but "highly" often
isn't enough. In my experience there were enough incompatibilities that it
just wasn't worth the hassle of trying to clean up documents sent back and
forth between the two office suites.
File format compatibility is far more important than similar user interfaces
or command structures. I would say file compatibility is the primary reason
companies keep buying MS Office.

Which part of that do you not understand?
This part
apache.incubator.ooo.user
You are correct that I didn't notice the second option (apologies for that).
I wrongly assumed it was another ooo link
But redirecting a LibreOffice issue to an ooo forum doesn't make any sense.
And this is a LibreOffice issue. So much so that TDF's Director bothered to
answer (unfortunately in German)
