So true! The dream of adding support for an additional extension language doesn’t fix the UI, the archaic defaults, unusual terminology, licensing restrictions, key bindings from keyboards used half a century ago. It’s all very sad. The worlds best editor, one of my favorite tools, is now too big to renovate. I used to toy with the idea of “fixing” TeX because I really liked using it, but again the fundamental problem that I wanted fixed was the extension language. I wanted something better than layers of macros on top of macros. Maybe I should stop musing about fundamentally transforming Emacs and go back to daydreaming of an improved TeX.
