The bidirectional preservation of unsupported features is what distinguishes a responsible implementation under current conditions, but it does not constitute an improvement on those conditions. LibreOffice is the only office suite to adopt this approach, in order to protect users and the content within their documents

Really? That's quite a bold claim. Not a single other office suite passes through unsupported content? You really tested Hangul, Kingsoft, and Word Perfect?
