How is google docs a terrible word editor? Do you mean that it lacking the advanced but rarely used features of word?

Yep, WordArt...

Honestly though, I do think Word captured a really nice standard feature set. And docs does a darn fine job of matching that set one to one. The image placement and handling can be a little wonky at times (at least the last time that I used it) but that's what one gets for trying to handle it all in html/javascript/canvas? For what it does, it's a mighty fine product.

Conspicuously missing for me:

- Always-visible word count (added recently, but missing for nearly a decade)

- Custom text styles—you can modify the existing ones, but not create new ones with new names
