According to the doc it's a less-hackish grid-based layout, apart from the usual benefits of a clean room reimplementation. But yes, in general TeX is hard to beat and I'd like to see some good comparisons about tricky stuff, especially considering that you won't switch because you find TeX' syntax to baroque…
I did get a bit more interested after I read who is writing this, as Simon Cozens is pretty well-known in Perl circles.
- simoncozens 12y agoJust to clarify - the grid layout isn't compulsory; it's an optional package. But it's a good example of a thing which is a hard problem in TeX (http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/1418/grid-system-in-latex http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/1418/grid-system-in-l...) and an easy one in SILE.
