Don't blame Markdown just because some other markup language you don't like
looks similar to you.
Why I don't like Markdown:
"Markdown is not a replacement for HTML, or even close to it. Its syntax is very
small, corresponding only to a very small subset of HTML tags."
"For any markup that is not covered by Markdown’s syntax, you simply use HTML
itself."

Which is the same criticism for the markdown used in the D wiki. It's a
frankensteinian hybrid.
