Yes, we hire someone to write HTML specifically. We're a large company, and we have a lot of interface to get written in a combination of CSS, JS and HTML. Lots of big companies do it this way. I think markup generated programmatically is going lack readability and flexibility. I think for anything other than trivially simple interfaces, programmatically generating markup is going to be a bottleneck versus just marking it up and substituting variables. However, these are just opinions. That's why I'm not going to use this framework, it doesn't mean it's not right for other people.
