Microsoft Word 2016

So, I authored the directory entry for this app with high hopes several months ago. Since then, I've seen one or two minor improvements, either resulting from OS X iterations or because of Word, I'm not sure which; but I would still never be able to use this for document authoring or even reading. I've followed it from 15.17 to 15.19.x. Contrary to their claims to be working hard on accessibility, I suspect that enhanced accessibility in Word 2016 came strictly as a byproduct of rewriting the apps in KoKo, and that little to no actual usability testing has been incrorporated into the development process. I have sent feedback from within the app with each new version, but who knows if it lands on anyone's desk or if they're interested. It's a terrible shame, since I'm sitting here on my MBA (in Bootcamp) while my Dell won't boot at all, and it'll take sight assistance to figure out what it's doing. That, and a general downgrade of usability in Windows 10 (IMO) make me crave a switch-over. I downgraded the language used in the directory entry, but hopefully it still reads as "objective" and others find it accurate--if not, I would want to correct it. Otherwise, I give up. Anyone with a genuinely positive experience with future versions of this software, please let us know. I mean, working with multi-page documents with styles and the like.
Other Office apps (Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint) fare better, but none of it counts for me without Word.

[Update: I've spent considerable time trying to narrow down the source of my Word issues, since others don't seem to be experiencing the freezes or random jumps back to the top. #1 Very large and complex docs of roughly 200+ pages seem to be a no-go, and it's not a Voiceover-specific issue: many other users are experiencing it. I am getting it whenever I open a book scanned by Kurzweil 1000, which is probably retaining things like text boxes and putting in loads of formatting in its efforts to reproduce the printed page. These docs are 500Kb or larger in docx format. Furthermore, I can't navigate past the first couple of pages if the document is in Compatibility Mode. File>Convert Document at least fixes that part. #2, The VO cursor seems to get unsynced from the keyboard focus at times and the keyboard focus jumps to the top of the document. If I start arrowing, I'm on page 1. But if I interact, I'm back where I was. So, sometimes when navigating to a new page, it leaves interaction mode. Finally, I have run into the issue where attempting to launch the file open dialog locks Word up entirely. I had to do a complete uninstall/reinstall to make it operable again, which meant redoing all my customizations (very few). Sometimes, page down works as expected; other times, VO+down moves to the next page as Microsoft claims it should. Sometimes, neither key combination does anything. Sometimes, VO will not read text until I exit/restart Voiceover. Some of this might be my computer, although I did a clean install in an attempt to get rid of the issues. VO acts unpredictably at times in Safari as well, so it's hard to tell how much of the above is about Word vs Sierra vs user error. When it works, Word is a fantastic program, much cleaner and more usable than on the PC, even.]
BTW: people asking about Ipad/IPhone, please note this is the Mac app directory, and that Word has a separate IOS entry. Haven't used it myself, since it lacks the document navigation map and so I can't navigatee in it by heading in the IOS version yet.

Very hesitantly, I will say that the combination of High Sierra and the latest build of Word for Mac (15.38) seems much less glitchy and is now usable. I'll modify the app directory entry if that turns out to still be true after a few weeks of usage.
Note that I still wouldn't recommend subscribing to Office unless you are compelled to use it for school or work, but that's really very commonly the case. Excel still doesn't read column and row headers. That would take custom code, either from Microsoft or Apple, and I don't see either one happening. Outlook presents the mailbox list as a grid, so that VO users need to cursor up and down within specific columns, rather than hearing an entire line at a time. I also couldn't edit text in a PowerPoint slide when I tried, but I didn't get into it very deeply. If Word actually doesn't go back to its old ways, though, then it would be more usable on Mac than it is with Jaws or NVDA, save for the lack of quicknav. Much of the quicknav functionality, though, can be reproduced directly in Word through its 1,400 possible keyboard shortcuts.
