I don't think I can make my point any clearer. I demonstrated that the bug I brought up four years ago still exists, that a separate file makes more sense, that people are more familiar with markdown, that existing tools (editors and sites like Github) already have very solid Markdown support. You've used the same argument multiple times: Markdown has multiple flavors. I get it, you don't like Markdown. You made that clear. But many others- myself included- *do* like Markdown, and want to be able to use it. Your arguments don't convince me that my desires are invalid.

I don;t see where you have, ever, even tried to address the concerns of incompatibility, including backward incompatibility. Should I assume that, since you have never had trouble with this (probably because you consider it a "bug" in haddock, the claim to said bug of course actually being that it ever existed in the first place --- if you actually think about the implications...), nobody else should ever have had such problems either?

Basically, while you claim that Mateusz's entire argument is "he doesn't like Markdown", *your* entire argument boils down to "everyone but Me is wrong with a side helping of "whoever invented Haddock forgot to get My blessing first". Talking past each other in such way is not constructive.
