I think you do not understand what I am saying. The main purpose of
description statements etc. is that they are easily to read by humans.

7.21.3.  The "description" Statement

   The "description" statement takes as an argument a string that
   contains a human-readable textual description of this definition.

I disagree with your claim that human-readable text is markup. The
whole RFC series is formatted human-readable text, not markup. I
believe this work is heading in the wrong direction, it will lead to
endless discussions of many different flavors of markup used in
description clauses, and it will harm interoperability at the human
eye level.

I believe there are way more important problems to work on. I am out
of this thread (since there is more important work to do).
