You know what has live view all the time? RTF. What’s wrong with WYSIWYG?

  nothing wrong with it. I wasn't evangelizing, just noting that at least some developers also want dual-pane markdown editing.

  Hard to parse when read as text. Heavier. Cannot read it through SSH. Need something else than your terminal. As someone who live in terminal emulators (yes, even home), markdown is more WYSIWYG than most other formats (I still think org-mode is better though)

There are also fancier options like https://github.com/Orange-OpenSource/pandoc-terminal-writer https://github.com/Orange-OpenSource/pandoc-terminal-writer (disclaimer: I contributed a small PR a long time ago)
