Ms love legacy backwards compatibility. But now that 365 has been around for a decade and you get word free with any Hotmail or live email address there is no need for wordpad.

you get word free with any Hotmail

Wait, really? Or do you just mean that a hotmail email writing space has all the same functionality as word?

I'll personally be sad to see WP go, I use it a lot because I don't want MS Office janking up my machine, and the free alts also seem to use a bewildering amount of my PCs power.

If you log into a Hotmail or Live account you can press the 9 dots in the top left and open word in your browser
