I wonder what you mean by "massive" here?  Do you mean the fact that there
is an explicit beginning and end?

Aside: I think a big getting rid of the FORTRAN-70 "touch" (capitalized
keywords and delimiters) would make Org must more ascetically pleasing.
(We’d just need to change default usage of templates and block
capitalization).
