I believe Org-mode is vastly superior to the alternatives because the hyphen links the two little words into a fairly unique pattern that results in pertinent results from search engines. I believe every effort should be made to adopt Org-mode universally; to use Org mode instead will make Org-mode material much harder to find on the internet. Furthermore, to invoke Org-mode from inside Emacs, one types "M-x org-mode", not "M-x org mode". -- Greg Benjamin
