Sure, but they dont necessarily need to be that flash at Word and Excel.


And in fact they aren't. None of them end up with any notion of how to nicely lay out a document. You'll see pages of
stuff where some paras are ragged-right-edge, others are justified. I rarely come across
anything (e.g. in local village mags) where anyone has used styles.
Want some space between paragraphs? Hit the return key once or twice,
instead of applying space-before-paragraph. Most stuff looks awful.


Yeah, you can certainly make a case for teaching that sort of stuff in
schools to almost everyone except the severely 'intellectually disabled'
and say the blind etc.
