| This is a running criticism I have of Microsoft's Office Open XML
| (OOXML). It has been narrowly crafted to accommodate a single
| vendor's applications. Its extreme length (over 6,000 pages)
| stems from it having detailed every detail of MS Office in an
| inextensible, inflexible manner. This is not a specification;
| this is a DNA sequence. For example, take this part of the
| OOXML "Standard":
|
| 2.15.3.6 autoSpaceLikeWord95 (Emulate Word 95 Full-Width
| Character Spacing)
|
| This element specifies that applications shall emulate the
| behavior of a previously existing word processing application
| (Microsoft Word 95) when determining the spacing between full-width
| East Asian characters in a document's content.
