Sure you can, especially when the "leading [for $] & mainstream"
office product supports both formats: just change your default format
to .doc (.xls, etc) and your output documents will be 100% compatible
with the .???x formats (if you're using MSO), or 95+% compatible if
you're using OO or LO.

Better to use .odf formats for this, and they work even in MSO 2007+.

They are and do, but there are limits when you don't have the
resources of a market giant with monopoly power (so far) and a
proprietary format that no one likes.

It's coming, sooner than you might think.
