For the same reason why Pillar supports export to LaTeX, HTML and Markdown...why not just one and use pandoc to convert it to everything? Because control and customizations. (And that's not even mentioning that some of the powers of Pharo stems from it's self-centeredness.)

There's open issue for it though https://github.com/pillar-markup/pillar/issues/8


Well I do use pandoc to convert markup to everything. Mainly because I thing that is more momentum around scholar markdown[1] and is difficult to push several light markup languages in this uncharted territory. Pandoc has support for yaml embedded (arbitrary) data. Of course having Pillar using markdown + yaml natively and export to LaTeX and HTML will be the killer feature to stop needing pandoc. Meanwhile I imagine that at some point I will use AST to hack/extend pandoc with Smalltalk, bridging these two words and having the advantages of smalltalk and scholarly markdown for scientific writing... time will tell.
