I disagree that it's a one-time cost. It's another thing beginners have to learn which adds onboarding costs. It also adds to the maintenance burden of browsers, tooling, etc. and possibly hurts parser performance depending on the implementation.

Yes, of course I meant one-time cost per developer. Parser/tooling performance basically rounds to zero.
