You might want to read up on the temp files Word creates so you're better
informed about how Word works. :-) No one is contending flash memory is more
volatile than HDD memory. What we're contending is due to how Word creates
and manages temp files Word documents become more susceptible to corruption
when working directly off a flash drive than they would in other
applications.

Word creates one (1) temporary file per document that is open. If one
document is open (and why would you need more than one open at a time to
transfer them?), then the file created is no larger than the original
document in the first place.

No, I've been educated and informed enough about the technology to know
how to use it correctly. You cannot provide ANY technical evidence that
using a flash drive correctly is any more prone to file corruption than
HDD media.
