Should antiX-full version ship with libreoffice4 from wheezy backports or keep with 3.5 version in the Wheezy repo?

I'm having good experience with LibO-4.0.3 on both Linux and WinXP.
I believe it is stable enough and has many new features.
LibO-3.5.6 still handles formats of the old OpenOffice, sx?, etcetera, before ODT, FYI.
NOTE: I am using direct from the LibreOffice download.

Libre-4 has better handling of some of the more modern microsoft formats. I upgraded mine with the metapackage installer.

My opinion is that Libre Office is too big consume too much resources to match with the AntiX distribution.
I think that the main reason to include it is the high compatibility with Microsoft formats so... should be updated to LibreOffice 4.

Probably a good idea as reports seem to say it's stable enough.
