    Perhaps because WP is entrenched in the Legal and Government markets, and if WP for Linux is present, then one more barrier for switching to Linux in these markets goes away.

    This is typical Linux hypocrisy. The entire OS is a patchwork project that drips amateurishness, yet unless a Linux app is absolutely perfect, it is tarred and feathered.
