Instead you move the view layer into the model or controller

Is that really what's happening? Any template has variables made
available to it from the model. I'm just making them available
at a higher level (pre-wrapped in semantic tags and grouped
together).
The actual layout and styling, sometimes even data formatting - the
stuff I think of as the view - is still done entirely in the
separate html and css files.
I realize this isn't a perfect argument, but it's still worth it
to me to have those other processing options available.
I got the impression that you basically did all HTML with D methods, maybe
I don't understand your work flow.
AIUI:
1. It starts out as ordinary HTML with no special non-standard tags or
anything. But it might use id and class attributes to mean certain things.
2. In D, that HTML is loaded and parsed into an HTML DOM.
3. In D, the data is filled into the HTML DOM. Sometimes this might involve
a amall amount of adding HTML tags/attributes or other weird tweaking if
necessary.
4. The new HTML DOM is written out as straight HTML.
Basically just like DHTML, except on the server and using D.
Ok I see.
