oh no, I meant the former. I guess it's just come from my personally use of orgmode day to day - which is great feature-wise but has no spec and I'm shackled to Emacs/Elisp. It just feels like things could have been designed better from the getgo. And markup is something that at least at face value simple enough that you could achieve what you want without a full parser/grammar
even though regex isn't quite crossplatform/standardized - it's much more standard than any way of expressing grammars
