RTF is just a textual dump of document structures. It is as close to 
lossless interchange format as it can be.

All text formats are secure as they do not contain machine-interpretable 
data.

No way. Please link me some 'full documentation' of 
text:list-level-style-number@style:num-format attribute, for example.

> Many other programs use ODF;

Apache OpenOffice, IBM Lotus Symphony, LibreOffice, NeoOffice, 
OpenOffice.org, are the same software.

All others programs do not use it as a native format and do not support many 
of the features.
