The worst thing Office ever did was effectively kill WordPerfect, and I will die on this hill.
Reveal Codes was an order of magnitude more useful than whatever crap MS continues to pass off as formatting notation to this day 20+ years later, and that's before we even get into Word being over-helpful and getting ahead of you by doing things with autoformat you never wanted to have happen.
Yes, I know WordPerfect is still around, but fat chance being able to conveniently use it anymore.
