That sounds like a perfect alternative wording of the kind of argument (La)TeX fans use to explain why they don't use a WYSIAYG contraption ;)

In practice, don't most users simply open an existing document of their own that comes closest to whatever new document they're going to create, and work from there? That is certainly how I tend to work, regardless of the kind of document or the application used to create it. I also tend to prefer to start with a truly empty and virgin slate in the (rare) cases I really start something new.

end of noise :)
