Hi :)
Hmm, there are many reasons for preferring non-MS.  Backwards compatibility is just 1 of the 
issues.  Current compatibility with it's own current formats is another.  A third is whether it's 
current formats work with non-MS products that do follow the OOXML ISO standard.

Preferring MS or not, or any other format, isn't the point here.

It's accessing the old files regardless of format, which even LO appears to be abandoning. You can't have it both ways, use ODT because the standards will remain unchanged so old files can be accessed while accepting a decision that prevents the accurate opening of the old files.
