Well-specified formats that are primarily produced by humans writing them by hand? The main entries in this category are programming languages.

IDK, JSON? HTML and XML are markup languages also. There are obvious issues with markdown that were fixed/resolved in various markdown variants, and missing features as well that I don't think anyone could argue helped adoption. Case in point, the most commonly used markdown flavor is GFM because we all adopted GitHub and that was what they support.
