Only until they change the file format again. Microsoft can
afford to change the file format on an even daily basis, and come out
with patches for the previous patches, and call them all "security
patches" so that everyone is either forced to apply them or dump
Microsoft altogether.
Open source projects can't possibly afford to keep up, if
Microsoft decides to go down this road.
