I suppose you aren't a Org-mode user or you feel that markdown is
superior (for what values of superior?) to Org-mode.

Org-mode, is the de-facto markup format for Emacs users.  Emacs has
rst.el.  Vanilla Emacs doesn't have font-lock support for markdown.  So
the existing support infrastructure surrouding Org-mode markup is much
far ahead of markdown.

ps: I am not opposed to markdown code.  Given a choice, Org-mode should
get priority treatment.
