Semantics are more important than syntax, sure. But it doesn't matter what the semantics are if you screw up the syntax, which you will be more likely to do without syntax highlighting because you're a hairless ape. I just don't see an actual reason not to use it, but if you don't want to, knock yourself out I guess.
