I miss old-school WordPerfect. Our school was largely using Office 97, but one teacher preferred WP, and we had to use it in that particular class.
My biggest takeaway from it was that, contrary to what MS would have you believe, it is absolutely possible to put formatting options in logical places in menus. Everything about WP was just so intuitive.

You never got stuck in formatting hell on word-perfect apparently.
It was pretty easy in creating new original documents.
Editing existing documents was an absolute nightmare. The list was extremely long of random shit that would happen we you deleted some text.
I never really ran into that, and part of the curriculum for that class was editing / correcting other people’s documents.
Was that only if you imported a document from a different format, perhaps?
There were a few times I encountered slight formatting glitches, but we were taught to just turn on Reveal Codes to easily find/fix those.
