In my travels I’ve not seen anyone use Libre Office or LaTeX; I’m not knocking them but if they are not widely used who will maintain the doc later when we all retire? When considering authoring docs like programs we need to consider the downstream consumers / maintainers so I’d go with the popular tools of today.
