That seems to be a case rather parented to Matryoshka dolls. As your
the-real-thing is itself within an other the-real-thing, thus a bigger one.

Bigger doll | Those who once upon a time planned to create Writer must have
asked themselves something as pertinent as "What would be the use-case for the
work it would require?". Have you at the time answered by asking yourselves
"What would make it (Writer) to be what we (developers) would like it to be?".
Presumed answer: "a versatile word processor". And indeed versatile, it has to
be, so that the document is what its author wants it to be. Yet this could at
best be a dynamic goal, since you (developers) restlessly are attempting to
achieve it by making Writer a better word processor.

Smaller doll | By the very act of creating a new ODT-typed document, regardless
being both a developer and user or non-developer and user of Writer, we dully
expect to master the final presentation of the content inserted into that
document. It would not be singular use-cases in nowadays' world to be in
situation of having to create an ODT document aiming to contain command-line
expressions in the purpose to serve the creation of a source either of
documentation, user-manual, technical guide, teaching material or any
illustration of command-line expressions for pedagogic scenario, be it aimed to
be used as digital material or paper book. In such a context a presentation (no
matter it is served by Writer or a competitor) of command-line expressions that
would not rigorously observe the rules being prevailing within the terminal
emulator would make no sense.
