I can imagine that your way of doing things becomes very complicated once you want to do edits and now have two types of files to keep in sync all the time (md and office).
The point of OP is that you keep one type of file. Also doing mass edits or source control with office must be a nightmare.
I can’t even imagine how hard it must be to get details right as well. As horrible as latex is, it still gives you much more control.
