Lord, I would not be running around, in public, saying that MY mind is so vapid, so shallow, that if I had to learn to use newer software that all my creative ability would suddenly evaporate.
Yes, well, when you do, say anything you want, but please deliver the manuscript to the poor slobs who work on it in a usable format.

What? And sacrifice the blessed creativity of the Author whose words come directly from the primeval core of their mind? You should be grateful that they deign to allow you to look at their manuscript, it being the unsullied Truth of Existence and all. They must be free to work without the hindrance of mundane, earthly considerations like readability. I mean, really.
