I have found this to be more true than makes sense. Even going with bare TeX is surprisingly nicer for plaintext files than I would have imagined. Yes, figures can be hard. But not really much harder than they are in any other tool. With the bonus that I have never really seen a document regress with the addition of new sections. Really the hardest part of figures and such is coming up with the actual figure in the first place. Most layout issues are ultimately solved by editing the figure.
