Heh. Life is too short. I had to use TeX/LaTex when I was a grad student. When I left, I never looked back.

I would choose to stay with the package (=Libreoffice) that I'm used
to. If this wouldn't be possible, I would switch. All my templates,
all my documents and all my experience are based on Libreoffice. When
you haveto write a lot of acedemic articles, it's the most essential
thing that you can rely on your office environment. "Nearly identical"
could mean a lot of extra work to particularly learn a new
system. Time which you can't use for something useful.
The best program for handling academic documents is LaTex. Any Mictosoft
like product can't hold a candle to LaTex for this job. Of course, you
would have to learn a new document producing system. The learning curve
is not easy but once it is learned you will never go back to producing
complex documents any other way.
