Now Markdown needs a decent spec, but that is cool
I always forget, is CommonMark good enough? Like with table and image support?
I like it! It's not much more than good enough, but that's good enough
Yup. If the standard gets too complicated, it starts to get hard to implement and use, and feature restriction might be necessary for certain use-cases. We want to keep it "good enough" because that ensures it's simple and easy to use, rather than something more capable but more complex like HTML.
