It is good for separate languages.  But texinfo
and org are quite special cases, because they allow
one to use syntax from other languages.  From what 
I have seen, prettify is not aware of how mathematical
expressions in texinfo could be constructed.  The way
mathematical expressions are written differ from simply
focusing on a keyword as is done for programming language
keywords.
