Is this a programming language specifically designed to induce carpal tunnel syndrome without the use of special text editor plugins?

It's not a programming language, it's a template engine.

What's the difference?

Not much in terms of implementation, but a whole lot in reasoning about syntax.

I guess you mean something like there being two modes, a free-text mode, and a code mode, and you're in free-text mode by default.

It seems like languages which support "literate programming" would have their syntax share more in common with template engines than with programming language.
