FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

Assistant was awesome. The voice isn't as punchable as Gemini's options.

Being bought out seems to equal corporate death, huh?

Always has been equal to such. I've seen a company I work with change hands three times, and with each time, something dies.

I would have to agree with dream_weasel. It's all about portability. Though, I would like to add on accurate reproducibility. LibreOffice's font rendering differs from system to system. A typesetting system like roff, TeX, and Typst aims to be reproducible, with TeX being the most as it uses packages and its own font format for rendering. The same argument can be made with MIDI vs Module. While MIDI can be used everywhere, all it is is just note data and metrics. Modules contain all of that plus the sample data, allowing for near perfect reproduction.

Typst isn't bad. I like it for it's font handling over LaTeX. However, if the font you want has a package, it's better to go with LaTeX for its portability.

You know, if we were taught to use something like LaTeX, this wouldn't be an issue because of BEAMER
