Why we ship a .docx instead of a Docs-only link
A downloadable file is yours: no template gallery, no forced account, and it doubles as the offline Word version when you need it. Google's conversion of plain-table documents is lossless in practice, so you get both formats from one file.
Working the canvas as a team in Docs
Share the Doc with editing rights, and put one rule in the header: one bullet, one idea. Use suggestion mode when someone challenges an entry, and comments to attach evidence to claims. Fill in the numbered order, starting at Customer Segments; the two instruction pages after the canvas keep the method in the same document as the work. When the discussion needs numbers instead of words, that is the handoff to the Sheets version or, for real financial modeling, the Complete Toolkit.
