Cassowary was admittedly a bad example, because it's a layout algorithm rather than a style system. But I've seen folks suggest that we just replace CSS with TeX, for example. Using TeX would make this problem a lot worse, because styling TeX involves expanding textual macros. You would lose any possibility of parallelism, ever.
