Goverments documents should be stored in format that is free and open and has free converters to other accepted formats - that is all. Law that says i need to use odf format, is as bad as using M$. Hey but looking at other people comments i see: "as long it is odf SCREW FREE CHOICE".
And business is about making cash, it can`t afford long time view or whatever. This are basics and if it doesn`t make sense for "open source " than open source doesn`t make sense for market. So in short this is typical thinking of a "kid" which is entirely inappropriate for real life business.
