"And if I email you an EXE file called "innocent.docx" you'd click on it?"
No. And if I did... on the Windows systems around here an .exe with a .docx extension would not run. I mostly use Mac and Linux systems anyway; Windows .exes don't run on either unless something like WINE is installed, which is not the case. (I do have Windows in virtual machines on many Mac and Linux boxes, but normally the VM is off. In the event that the system somehow recognized that a .docx was really an .exe and launched Windows in the VM to load it, I'm pretty sure that people would notice.)
It's a vulnerability in LibbreOffice, and no amount of whataboutism is going to make it less of a vulnerability. If this was a problem in Office, many commentards would be screaming for Microsoft's head. Oh Wait. It _was_ a problem in Office, _20 years ago_, and has been patched. Why in Christ's name has a 20-year-old vuln been brought back to life?
