Corporate users aren't the general public either... They have SysAdmins to take care of the computers...

Yes, but unlike the general public, corporate users are a big part of determining what the
de facto
standard is for productivity application document files. Small businesses with corporate clients or suppliers have to be able to handle the file formats (and, of course, fonts) of the files their clients and suppliers attach to emails, and have to get people with the skills to use those applications, where the use of Microsoft Office products is taught in community colleges and business colleges all across the country.
I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.
