I only obliquely care, but out of curiousity, what is your reasoning here? Is
there some genteel drawing-room shibboleth I've missed? I'd like to know
because I collect such curiousities.

Maybe, but not necessarily understood. I gave up about 75% of the way through
your paragraphs to this point. The one statement I understand clearly: that
programmers make the worst of the markup, is interesting, but surprising to me
as I hardly thought programmers wrote enough markup for judgment. I'm always
amazed at how many XML programming projects are driven by precious little
motivating content. I guess XML is just, well, fun?
