Microsoft has made a "crucial" accessibility improvement to Word for Windows

Basically, Microsoft has built a new navigation experience described as "crucial" for differently abled users leveraging screen readers.

Previously, pressing the up and down keys would navigate to whatever was above or below the cursor position. This meant that you could accidentally skip over content as you move to a separate line rather than the next logical position in a document.

With the new implementation, pressing these keys should result in more logical navigation. For example, if you're at the end of a column, pressing the down key will move your cursor to the top of the next column.
