seems youre barking the wrong tree? why should someone use snap to install libreoffice?
I don't understand why you mentioned barking and trees, but I do understand your question. However, I don't understand why you asked me that; you've the entirety of Google to answer that question, including the Snapcraft forums. To prevent this issue tracker becoming a discussion forum about a tangent, perhaps ask a more specific question, with some actionable context about why you're asking that here. Though, to be as assistive as I am able to be, https://unix.stackexchange.com/revisions/632658/3 explains well.
