Think about it for like 2 seconds:

How about the fact that no one other than an engineer can edit/modify the
HTML output?

The point is that you want to allow anyone the ability to easily edit the
HTML code...designers, idiots, engineers, everyone. If you code everything
in ECS, the only people that can edit the HTML output are the engineers.

Again, ECS is still useful in places and is still the core of how Turbine
works, but the job of editing HTML is not the engineers, it is the
designers.

You should download the TDK and check it out...that is a 5 minute free guide
to showing you the power that I'm talking about...
