Org is formatted and structured with markup. It is intuitive,
but formal.

But it isn't binary and no further processing is required
before it can be accessed to convey it's meaning.

Note that this mail is formally structured (the attribution,
citations, and signature) so if that's disallowed then this
mail is also not plain text.

C++ source is plain text.
