I can think of a lot of potentially false things in the statement. The biggest falsehood likely is the perception that one needs Emacs. :-)
You kind of do need Emacs though, as far as I know it is the only existing fully compatible implementation. As soon as the file is outside that environment, all bets are off. I tried using org-mode instead of Markdown once, not for long.
