I think it is less a matter of *what* is described in https://orgmode.org/worg/dev/org-syntax.html rather than *how* it is described. As the first paragraph says: "This document describes and comments Org syntax as it is currently read by its parser (Org Elements)" while we need a description of Org's syntax from the point of view of (1) a human writer and (2) any possible Org parser. I don't know how difficult it is, but I suspect it is quite a lot of work. -- Bastien
