"...I'm always getting non-standard files from them (dot pages anyone?)..."
And every graphic/web designer in the world will match your story with several about asking clients for a copy of a company logo or product images and being sent Word docs with said files pasted into them.
...or asking for copy text in plaintext format and being sent .docx files.

So what does either my or your point prove?
Merely that a lot of people don't know much about computing outside their own field –whatever the OS involved.
