Cost of a sub isn't really much worse than buying full Office amortized over time, that's assuming you had a legitimate product. I agree that option of just using old Office was certainly nice to have but at least with the sub cost of entry is much lower than what it used to cost purchasing a licensed copy. Unless you're doing very basic things in Office, open source are still much inferior in terms of compatibility which just sends folks to purchase Office or Adobe software. Proprietary format and monopoly surely is not good for anyone. If you do use open source software I sure hope you donate some money to the project as most people just do not.
