I can also attest to the biological sciences reliance on Word and Track Changes. It's maddening at times but then again my 80 year old PI (whose in the lab everyday doing wet work still!) can use it and every computer on our campus (some 1000 or so) can be used to edit our drafts .
I and some of my other colleagues would much rather move into something like Google Docs and we've done so to a limited extent. I wish someone had told me about Authorea a month ago before I started another manuscript in Word. I'm happy to take the hour and my PI is happy to spend the hour for me to show him how to use other editing and collaboration tools. I just need to know about them!
