Coincidentally using HTML rather than markdown uses waaaaaay more tokens.

Oh hey look at this blogpost by the company that's selling compute by the token

I've had Claude produce HTML containing SVG for graphs recently. I could have produced Markdown+PNG. Are you saying that Markdown+PNG would have used fewer tokens?

Because markdown can totally do all the stuff that this article is about. Did you even read it?
