It appears that in the Microsoft world, the software will open the .doc file whethert its content are legacy word or current .xml and it creates .doc file instead of .docx since it assumes software that opens such files is able to automatically switch between legacy and XML file formats when opening .doc On the mac howeve, Quicklook, Pages and Preview doesn't have this ability and it will only scan for legalcy format in .doc and only scan for XML content in .docx, even when both file extensions point to the same software.
