I am aware of that.
Switching to the Sphinx input format instead of the Texinfo format
could conceivably have an advantage: it would not need to be read
directly by TeX.
But tat change would be substantial work. In order for Sphinx input
format to serve this purpose, it would beed to be extended to handle
all the different markup semantics that Texinfo handles.
The syntax of these to-be-defined constructs in Sphinx would
not look like the Texinfo constructs. The whole point is that they
would NOT look the same! But they have to be able to specify the
same kinds of distinctions.
