It is very cool, specifically as a human readable mark down / data format.
The fact that you can make anything a tag and it's going to be valid and you can nest stuff, is amazing.
But with a niche use case.
Clearly the tags waste space if you're actually saving them all the time.
Good format to compress though...
I disagree, with a passion.
It is soooo cluttered, so much useless redundant tags everywhere. Just give JSON or YAML or anything really but XML...
But to each their own i guess.
To each their own indeed.
