Is there anyone who can make this comprehensible?
Yes. The answer probably won't go down well especially if you have a phablet but this is generally the answer.
It was decided that phones are not the best tools for using an Office type program but the ability to simply edit/review would be sufficient. Phones were considered too small to be used effectively. The initially idea behind WP was to be a device to 'Get in, get done, move on with your life', however MS misunderstood the mobile phone world at the time they came up with that idea. People have been using their phones for this type of purpose for years before and want to continue to do so. That's why we get upset people like yourself on here when they first try to use it and the main reason why I don't bother with it because it's pointless to use.
