The issue here is if MS be allowed to destroy the little fish so as to steal the market
Not really that interested in either product but historically if MS is allowed to take control of a market then, I would guess, that it will not be long before the stuff currently bundled for free suddenly becomes chargeable with the price only increasing (subscription and slurp) once there is no longer any alternative.
Monopoly laws are supposed to prevent one company taking complete control of a market and here I have to agree with the whiny slack guy MS need to be limited to retain choice, it doesn't have to be slack but it shouldn't be MS or nothing.
The guy posting how great he thinks excel is clearly wasn't around before MS were allowed to kill off the other office products (via dirty tricks) that used to be available, some of which are still better and cheaper than MS offerings. Thus shouting that excel is the best spreadsheet when there is no longer another product you can buy instead is not something you should be happy to shout about unless OFC you are are shill.
