"Exiting" doesn't seem to be the right word? How do we stop Google, who is currently "exiting" HTML ?

Should we? I thought you were making the argument that HTML was a bad fit for non-hyperTEXT content. From up-thread:

"Why use the HyperTEXT Transfer Protocol for things completely unrelated to text..."

If Google agrees with you, would we want to stop them?

By "exiting", I mean Embracing-Extending-Extinguishing.
