Adobe PDFMaker COM supplement makes Office 2013 behave wonky in network operations

I have stumbled in this weird problem.

Some users, in some files, seemed to be unable to use 'Save As...' in word 2013 in some network files.
The Save As dialog was not appearing, no amount of keyboard bashing or button clicking would solve that.

I checked the network server permissions and they were good. Stumped, I started debugging by disabling the COM supplements one by one.

And I had this eureka moment when I disabled Adobe's extension and network file operations started working again.

Microsoft's native impementation may not make files as small as Adobe's, but it is in reasonably good shape, it has been working well since Word 2010.
