ELI5 how this is Literate Programming? See the first example on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_programming for comparison.

CUE seems like the opposite: a typed data structure used to produce artifacts via a unification algorithm and feeding data to external tools to "render" those artifacts.

The same thing I wonder when one claims Jupyter notebooks to be literate programming.

I think cue might be close but to be honest, some practical examples would have been helpful to get a better impression of the point the article is trying to make.
