There is a big difference between blaming the user and suggesting that
it is the configuration of the computer (which I suspect was what was
meant).  Configuration can be messed up without the user being at
fault. There is no personal attack involved in suggesting that the
configuration settings may be messed up.  We have all experienced
that.

The OP, however, was clearly attempting to lay blame on the
developers, saying that they "should find and put resources toward
making Libre Office function, or remove it from the default
installation".
