It might make me smarter, but it makes me feel dumb.

Most things that make you smarter also make you feel dumb.

(I won’t opine on whether LaTeX qualifies or not.)

I read about typst a few weeks ago. I no longer make math- or formatting-heavy documents anymore, but if I had had this while I was in university, I would’ve loved to use it.

LaTeX is nice, but there’s some things that are an absolute pain to get right or make them look like you want to.
