" Assuming you’re not one of the 10% of people who “power-use” Word"
Where did that statistic come from? Word is essential for students and most of its features, especially the word count, the thesaurus, the referencing for the footnotes, the formatting of paragraphs, the spell checker, I can't actually think of anything that I do not need and even if I did not, word loads quickly, its interface is somewhat simple and kind of intuitive, so why should I care about some hidden feature which I do not use.
Doctors use word, dentists, lawyers most certainly, every office in the country uses word, every school, really only my grandma does not need word!
- rooshdi 17y agoI think the author was actually emphasizing the point you made about "why should I care about some hidden feature which I do not use". The 10% of power users he was referring to are the ones who use far more than the features you stated. Those features you stated are actually general features which most people use, but these are just a small subset of the vast feature set that is available for users within Word. Most users don't even know these "extra" features exist, let alone what they do and how to use them.
