I think the best way to show the benefits of any of these formatting syntax flavors is to actually write a sample documentation page based on an existing one from phobos/dlang.org, with the same (or close to) the generated output as the ddoc one, and then we can clearly see how the two compare and whether it's worth considering looking into. I personally agree the ddoc macro's can introduce a lot of visual noise.
