And AFAIK Word itself is fairly complete regardless of package - the different Office packages are more about what things you get beyond the core four programs (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and OneNote). But the Word you get in Office Home & Student is the same as the one you get in Office Professional - it's just that Professional also includes Outlook, Publisher, and Access.Because they appeal to different parts of the market. WoW is an MMORPG, Overwatch is a team-based first-person shooter, Starcraft is a real-time strategy game, Diablo is a dungeon-crawler, and Hearthstone is a casual card game. They appeal to totally different people. That's like Wizards not only publishing D&D, but also Lords of Waterdeep, Attack Wing, and Tyrants of the Underdark.But what TSR did was more like if Blizzard had said "Oh, WoW is doing great. Let's use the same engine but replace the races, and swap out one of the specializations for each class, and make a new world for it. Then we'll rake in twice as much money. And then let's do the same thing ten more times - just imagine all the money rolling in!"</blockquote>
