You mean to say that all we've been doing so far is just pretty printing our mundane thoughts since the invention of the written word and true value will only be unlocked by throwing away typographic knowledge accumulated over centuries and writing documents for the machines instead? Maybe you're right. Perhaps typography and the print media is finally truly obsolete. But you're not the first to make such a claim and you won't be the last. In the meantime, there's still a valid case for learning LaTeX well enough to be able to produce a correctly typeset document. Perhaps you should consider this viewpoint instead of dismissing TeX as an unwanted bastard child in your website's workflow?
