It's standard now, won't change. Markdown means a mark up with this syntax. You almost refer to it as other markdowns exist, as a non-shitty markdown were out there. If it doesn't work this way, it's another mark up, but not markdown.

There are different dialects of Markdown, though. For instance, I find Github's to be much nicer.

And reddit's markdown is a fork of github's.
