To me, the "enrichment" layer means 2 things:

- a tiny DSL for rendering anything custom, where every markdown renderer potentially introduces its own unique bit of syntax that's not transferable (example: frontmatter in Obsidian where you can put tags, that's not vanilla markdown)

- a note taking / viewing app, of which we now have dozens, where moving notes from one app to another creates friction, because of the custom "enrichment" layer each of those apps have (example: any popular plugin in Obsidian, where your notes are now littered with that plugin's tags)

HTML has this type of "enrichment" built-in.

Anyway, I am not trying to convince anyone. This is me working through this in my head. I have a large vault of Obsidian notes that I want to make more useful. And I figure, HTML is the standard-issue tool for producing beautiful-looking and functional text documents, so it's worth thinking about.
