…now you have seventeen standards!

No support for tables (by design), so this rules out use for many technical documents unless one wants to use images instead.

It looks like a chatty cousin of Markdown, especially on text styles.

This could be more extensible to reserve some brackets and exclamation marks but it's less extensible than other mature markups like reStructuredText I think, and it looks more verbose than Markdown. So I wonder how it could find its own sweet spot.

How should this work with actual sites, since it mixes the concerns of html and css? The footnotes feature is nice but seems like a distinct concern, hm.
