Most Word documents could be written in .doc format too. I mean why not use .doc? Then I can open it on my Pentium laptop running Word 97 right?

Thanks for the response but it would seem that in your run away defensive enthusiasm you have lost track of the original question which was along the lines of why use epub3 in cases where epub2 meets the need.
It does not seem to me that there is any claim in that or subsequently that epub3 should not be used when it delivers benefits for cases when the media profits from its use or when the producer of the media otherwise desires for whatever reason whether useful or not.
So, your response tells me nothing. Thanks for trying though.
