? re: WU vs. Office Update

I was relying entirely on WU to keep me up to date, until I used MBSA and it
told me that Office components need updating, which I did at
http://office.microsoft.com/officeup....aspx?lc=en-ca .
I only have Word and Works, but I guess these contain Office components. I
would never have known that there was even an Office Update if I hadn't done
the scan.
My question is, why doesn't WU cover all Microsoft products?
