The article correctly identifies the upsides of Markdown, then identifies a bunch of issues that I, as a casual user of it, don't care about.

Then, in the solution section, doesn't identify a solution.

No thank you, I'll stick with Markdown.

I enjoyed how it complained about how unclear and ambiguous Markdown’s syntax for bold and italic text supposedly is, then showed an HTML translation with <strong> and <em>.
