Lol no. It still lacks many of the formatting tools that MS Office has, and documents originally created in MS will frequently get messed up. I use LibreOffice because it's FOSS, but I'm not going to pretend it's functionally better than MS Office, because it's not by almost every metric.
The reason why OpenDocument format is enforced in MS Office, is because it enforces compatibility. Tell everyone who uses docx to stop promoting a proprietary software, they have the option to save to a neutral file format.
