If I had to build a car every time I needed to drive
to the supermarket, I'd starve to death.

Most industries *do* have domain-specific DTDs or
other specs for exchanging data. DocBook is a
domain-specific DTD for technical authors. Sure you
can build your own if you like, but most of us don't
need to.

--> I like the image, but I see it more as building your own custom car, and then ride it everytime you need to go to the supermarket. I wish docbook met my needs, I would already be riding!!!
