Simple.
1. Not fixing Master Documents.
2. Not fixing the simple method of formatting for numbering and bullets.
3. Not simplifying the formatting of numbering and bullets using any
of the more reliable methods in Word.
4. Not making it simple to reach these complex formatting procedures.
5. Imposing a non-intuitive and sparse GUI while adding complexity to
navigation of that interface.
