The office relies on behaviour in windows itself "a lot". Even office mac or office web they made themselves isn't a 1:1 replica of the office on windows.

Let alone describe it as a standard.

"this behaviour is as seen in Word 95" sounds sloppy, but it is indeed the closest they can get.

Or what else can you do? You can't just also ship a installation media of word 95 and windows into the ISO standard, right?

That's what they almost literally did. The spec is littered with "behavior of this program that has no specification and to see it you need to install it and run it"

And that's on top of re-inventing a bunch of specs in MS-only and MS-specific manner (like dates, for example)
