Every minute spent using MicroSoft Word feels like 10 minutes of my life wasted. Why can't the world choose a better standard like Nisus Writer ?

G'day, Philip et al
Welcome to the clinic. No need to apologize. We've all been there.
On the off chance that your question is not entirely rhetorical, perhaps I can be of some assistance.
Once upon a time there was a Big Bang. A curious feature of this event was that insufficient light was generated for certain purposes. This explains why there are shadows, why there is so much dark matter in the universe, why phosphorescence evolved in fungi, why Diogenes carried a lamp, and why only a woefully small subset of humanity is enlightened. Supplied with these considerations, derivation of the corollary relating to Word should be a trivial exercise for any AI tool worth its salt.
There is a school of thought that maintains that excursions into the tenebrous realms can actually be exhilarating, with expeditioners claiming to experience a marked increased intensity of illumination upon return to their usual habitat. Indeed, filtering devices of various sorts have even been invented in order to mitigate the culture shock. (I am sure you would be familiar with Nisus Macros?) Be that as it may, I suggest prudence dictates that such forays be embarked upon but rarely, and even then only with a healthy supply of prophylactic medication on board.
May you all bask in the light in 2024.
Cheers,
Adrian

And many thanks to you Þorvarður for all the help and advice you give… and we should also include Martin, to whom I personally am truly indebted for his unstinting help!
Best wishes to all
