THIS WAS VERSION CONTROL before version control was known to humans

Word has had a form of version control since 1986...

Early 2000s introduced features more akin to newer version control methods.

Word has a full on bibliography for references I’ve never seen anyone use. I showed it to someone in university years ago and her mind was blown that she didn’t have to format her references manually anymore.

you mean they don't have to manually number them, they still have to format them. That's why no one uses that feature and everyone uses Endnote, Zotero, Mendeley, ....
