I think it’s more that MS always tries to hit all the demographics at once. People who really need it are going to use Quark, Adobe, Corel, or something more use case specific. People who don’t are going to be fine with Pages, Writer, Word, etc. the few times they need something more powerful than a word processor. Publisher ended up in the “no-man’s-land” in the middle.
