If you want to write beautiful documents. Use something else, be it html+css, word, latex and so on.
But at the same time accept that these are potentially time consuming and complicated to do by hand or even with tools.
Markdown and likes are for the case of fast and minimal styling, while still being human readable and writable. Which is very reasonable trade-off. And I will take it every day.
Don't try to force something like tags for writing as that would be just horrid.
I can generate a LaTeX document from a Markdown document. Or an HTML document. Or a Word document. I'm not going to send or print Markdown, I'm going to generate some delivery format from it.
