If you like the idea of having bare-bones text-only web then you will see how everybody and their granny have a feature that they won't get onboard until it is implemented. Then at that point we will have HTML again.

I'm more optimistic, I think it might be able to find its niche. I agree it would be hard to outright replace the web, but there's room for more than one way of delivering text. man pages are still around, for instance.
