Microsoft Word is just fine. I assume most of the hate is for Microsoft because Word works just fine for most people’s use cases.

All the issues mentioned in the OP are longstanding issues with word. It's not "just fine". It's really annoying.

PDF is not meant to be edited, it's meant to be a digital representation of physical paper.

The other problems are just people who don't actually learn to use Microsoft Word, you certainly can add more words to spellcheck and you can change how images and text interact, the only thing I can think of that caused issues is at one point they changed the default, too many people never learned how to change the layout and keep expecting the old behavior after the change.

These people don’t want to hear it. They’re obsessed with the cult of hating Microsoft. If they said, software should be libre/open source and LibreOffice is superior in that regard, I could take them seriously.

Intended or not, millions of people have to edit millions of pdfs every day.

For me, it isn't that it doesn't work, it works fine enough most of the time. It's that it's so heavy! My work PC is just an office special and it can chug with all the bloat from the office suite. Especially Outlook. God I hate Outlook.

Carving animals on the wall of the cave is just fine. I assume most of the hate is for caves because carving animals on the wall works just fine for most ungabungas' use cases.

I'm not sure about charts but code snippets and blocks are handled the same as standard markdown:

function myFunc(arg1, arg2) {
  const test = 'This is a string';

  return null;
}

It also supports exporting to a variety of formats, although I can't speak to the accuracy when reading them in other applications as it's not a feature I've used.

I’m not sure which is worse, the fact that you thought this was clever and relevant or the fact that other people upvoted it and helped to validate your unbounded idiocy.
