There is also another problem, how do you declare “FULL compatibility”? There is no official test to confirm that some document is in full compatibility. MS-Office 2013 also supports ODF format (because some governments want to have open document format to avoid lock-in) that is main LibreOffice document format. And there is the Microsoft way on solving document compatibility. There is ISO standard of Microsoft office document that nobody really follows. Recent MS-Office documents are little mess. So reverse engineering and other techniques are needed to maintain compatibility. Older MS-Office binary formats are closed format poorly documented or not documented at all. In my humble opinion LibreOffice will never be 100% full compatible with MS-Office.
