Actually, this "forum" has been around long enough and populated with
enough many people to make that assumption somewhat baseless. Just as
an example, there are those of us who cut teeth with troff long before
"TeX" was a meaningful [leaving aside a particular italian comic book
cowboy, that is] word. I will, however, cheerfully admit that "Andr\'e"
is much easier to read and type than "Andr\o'e\(aa'", so I guess you
could say that there are a few advantages to a document compiler that
came about only a decade after troff.
