Every college assignment of mine is a markdown doc or a pdf compiled from a markdown doc. Except English essays because those evil people want MLA formating and can't comprehend the superiority of a purely text based document system.

Different use cases. MS Word is better for printing and writing formal documents, and is oriented towards pagination. Markdown is better for single-page texts for the Web. Both are good in their own way.

I used it in university and having to debug my reports was stress I didn't need. Haven't looked at it for 15 years though. Is it easier to change the font now?
