I generally avoid editing complex documents in the online version of Word.

One would think that applying built-in styles would be safe in Word Online, but apparently not. :-(

Recently, I lost bullet formatting in a (short) document which I edited online. It happened to a paragraph where I wasn't doing any editing at the moment. The style just got lost and I had to re-apply it to the text paragraph.

This was a minor issue, of course, but it underlines the fact that editing isn't reliable in Word Online.
