The point of that if The text is to be edited in a general purpose text editor, I would rather it be in Markdown. Org mode is pretty useless as a format outside emacs proper.

Actually, the Org format is supported by web sites like GitHub and GitLab, and there are several parsers in different languages. It's even supported by Pandoc, so you can convert to/from anything Pandoc supports.
In contrast to the actual Android apps that handle Markdown natively.

Don't get me wrong, I love org mode, but there is no real support on Android other that a damn-fine list-making app that uses a subset of org-mode format for its lists.
