Didn't the Mac version of Office get canceled then restarted then canceled then restarted a number of times over the years?

No. It lagged about a year behind the windows version (2003->2004, 2007->2008, 2010->2011, no 2013 equivalent), for 2016 they should be both at the same time. Also, regarding the features, it used to lag, but since 2011 it achieved almost feature parity (minus the addons, that are downloadable extras, like PowerQuery, PowerMaps or PowerPivot).
