I don’t do too heavy of math stuff, and I have figured out the Microsoft Word equation editor enough to suit most of my needs. The main nicety of LaTeX are math equations. I did my dissertation in LaTeX, and I would do that in LaTeX again, but smaller articles are not a big deal. (FYI folks, besides doing the obvious and pointing out typos if they exist, my text editor has a spell checker same as Word to highlight typos.) Besides this, none of my co-workers use LaTeX, so it is a non-starter for when I am collaborating. Last time I submitted a LaTeX document to Criminology a reviewer said it probably had typos - without pointing out any of course. Many refuse to accept PDF articles outright, and last time I submitted a LaTeX file to JQC (a Springer journal) that would not compile I received zero help from staff over a month of emails, so I just reformatted it to a Word document anyway. Most of the journals in my field (criminology and criminal justice) make it difficult to turn in an article in that format. A student asked me about using LaTeX the other day, and I stated that it is a bit of a hassle for journal articles in our field, so I have begun to use it less.
