Heh, it's not useful to compare apples to oranges. DOCX, as well as ODT, is a
ZIP with XMLs inside. It's interesting to know how much space would the XMLs
inside the DOCX take, or how much would zipped FODT take. It's also
interesting, how much normal ODT takes, which indeed also has all the
redundancy, compared to DOCX.

This is very argumentative.
