For anything more complex, world utterly fails when you inadvertently edit a column of that table, that will break page 533 beyond recognition.
The sad part of Word is that even professionals mess it up constantly, because you have many ways to reach the same goal, and that every addition affects the whole document, or in some fortunate cases only the part till the next page break. But silent breakage is the worst, as is quite clear from any kind of programming background. Imo, Word just doesn’t scale due to this.
