One way, not the only way

Why the strong feelings against WYSIWYG? Like LaTeX and DocBook (which I use regularly), using OpenOffice.org Writer is just another way to create documents. And, like LaTeX and DocBook, OOo Writer has its pluses and minuses.

If created and used properly -- with proper character paragraph and character styles -- a word processor template can be used to create a well-structured document. It's when users don't use styles properly that trouble starts.

What the author is pesenting is one way to do the job. Not the only way, maybe not even the best way for some.
