    What is so bad in using 2? After all​:

    Pod is supposed to be a clean easy way for mere mortals to write
    documentation. The twin goals are easy of writing and easy of parsing.

    Ease of writing. Why should I have to remember which shortcuts the various
    translators are supposed to have, and which they don't?

    That 1 works is great, but that doesn't make 2 wrong.
