Windows will no longer have an integrated basic rich-text-based word app.

Wordpad always seemed like an annoying and unnecessary half-step between notepad and word to me.

It was very niche, but it’s great for viewing docs or other light work on a system you don’t want to install a whole office suite onto.

You can still do that but it’s through word webview. Some people won’t like that option.

I don't want to install "word webview" on a server in order to look at a large log file or peruse some XML.

You don’t, it’s a browser. You shouldn’t be doing anything interacting from a server anyways.
