When sending an Office document you have to find out which version the recipient has or save it as a compatible file. Incompatible files look like they’ve been written in hieroglyphics. Imagine working in a professional printing shop trying to wade through thousands of files created by hundreds of different versions of dozens of different software.
It would get ugly fast. Orders would pile up. Documents would be printed in gibberish. The whole system would crumble down around our ears!
