MS Word, (when last I used it,) had the ability to reset counters.
If anything, it was too easy to do ‘accidently.’

When it comes down to it, I have found very few functions in Xy that I
use every time I use Xy and which I have not found in any other
editor, or not to the same degree/usefulness as in Xy (without having
to shallow a lot of other useless functions I _don't_ want or need).
These are:
1. Keyboard customizability.
2. The ability to set and delete counters at any arbitrary point in
the text.
The second one seems absurdly simple, yet I have never seen another
program that doesn't assume that I want to number every damn paragraph
automatically once I set one counter at the first paragraph, and I
_don't_.
