This. Is. Pure. Catnip. For. Me. What a new years present. Thanks for sending this along.
As always, a bit miffed they don't mention Asciidoc, which has formal functionalities in core (transclusion, conditionals) without needing template languages or entering extension-landia.
But about that - I'm not convinced that non-natural language functionality like transclusion even belong in the content layer. Tech pubs teams always, always, always underestime the complexity of an interface between natural language and formalist structures (transclusion, conditionals). Ah, and the authors go through this. Boy oh boy, can I say thanks again? I've been looking for a paper in this vein for literal decades, as I lack the deep math.
