Please download the standard, and compare the two subsequent sections:
> 17.6.17 sectPr (Document Final Section Properties)
> 17.6.18 sectPr (Section Properties)
Essentially, they have defined two different kinds of sectPr: one in the end of
document, at the same level with paragraphs; and optional sectPr as a
(sub)child of paragraphs! There is the proper place where non-final sectPr may
only be properly placed.

Word's bug is that it accepts those invalid top-level non-final sectPrs. If it
rejected them as invalid, or at least ignored completely, there would be no
incentive in third-party developers doing those kind of mistakes.
