The thing is, if this meant anything it would've shut down LibreOffice years ago. It's not illegal to be in the likeness of something. Look at Fender Bass Guitars and Sadowsky Bass Guitars. Sadowsky is in the likeness of Fender and they're iindirect completion.

Microslop is just fucking butthurt that people don't want to pay to read documents.

I want to also add, if it were illegal to be off brand and have the same function, there wouldn't be store brands. They're losing money, big shit, they're the name brand, they'll recoup their losses.
