    Once MSOffice / MSWord etc. are fully cloud based, they can say “oh it’s too big to fit on your computer, so a local copy is infeasible” and Wordpad would be the complete antithesis of all of that. It’s clearly small enough to fit and always will be. Can’t be having an easy disproof like that.

    Then will begin the FUD, “accidental” breaking and disallowing of foreign programs that would fit on local storage that would also compete with MSWord until there’s a walled garden not unlike Apple’s.
