This is funny. I developed a pretty good competence in LaTeX to write my 
thesis (which thanks to LaTeX, looked beautiful) and never once used 
LaTeX again.

The biggest hurdle to these markup languages is collaborative documents 
and that LaTeX and the like are impossible for collaborators to learn. 
Yes, impossible, in the 0%-chance-of-ever-happening meaning. So you get 
stuck with Word. This is the reality once you are passed writing term 
papers.
