I would rephrase it as 'there is only one architect'. Just wait for
five years when the music inset author will come and say 'math is
complete crap right now and I can implement all of it with my brand
new musicinset architecture'. The fact that math editor is now very
clean does not mean that it should be used as the base for the rest.
It only means that the rest should be cleaned up too.

It only means it could be changed to produce something else than math
insets. 

My thought is, the only good reason to chose math insets would be to
prove that it is an inherently better architecture. And I am not
qualified to comment on this.
