The main issue is when you have to work with other teams or companies. Even if you use all the same programs trying to get someone on Mac to work with someone on Windows is nearly impossible, and the problem scales tenfold on Linux. Any meeting between design, analytics, and development is basically a tech support session.
Even if your ecosystem is shit, having a consistent company/industry wide one is extremely useful.
Yeah, we have designers, and while we have mercifully managed to stop them emailing spreadsheets and spec docs as an OsX pages/numbers doc, they have a tendency to get "custom" in ways that would go badly if they did stuff in Libre and a client tried to open it in Word or GDocs
