Most people are from the opposite side of the spectrum, i.e.
text editor, not word processor.

Here is where you should look

In principle, I don't see why Emacs cannot be like that as
well for those whow opt-in on it, but in practise it's an
uphill battle - I don't see us every getting there, for the
said reason, most people who are here or come here do that for
the opposite, the text/programmer's editor side of it.

Jean, what features is it exactly that you miss?

For example, that they have in LibreOffice Writer?

Because, if you focus on those, maybe you have better luck
getting them individually so to speak.
