I'm in this "group" and see an immediate usefulness of this over what I'm doing now.
I also prefer plain text, but in most of my emails I talk about technical stuff, or I send transactional emails that require actions, in which case showing buttons is a much better user experience than plain text.
You could have a larger text instead of a button, but changing font size is also HTML and not plain-text anymore.
Human language is an unnecessary abstraction, just like images.
I wish everyone would communicate in pure Binary.
The devs maintaining MJML deserve so much credit for dealing with Gmail/Outlook's monopoly bullshit and 2007 html.
Nice idea for those who manage content in markdown. I've moved away from putting emails in my codebase, but seems great for founders moving fast.
