OP here. Perhaps attempting to coerce orgmode upon others will satisfy the guarantee.
Personally, my org workflow eases collaboration with people, because it removes friction for me, going from thoughts -to-> working document + code examples + plaintext diagrams and more.
Frequently I have started technical, architectural, business documents in my local org file, and once I'm happy with it, exported to markdown for upload to the team wiki.
It is a hard sell for group collaboration, compared to, say, markdown. But I would also say that such things are very context-dependent and group policy-driven. e.g. I know of one or two groups that foreswore markdown for ASCIIDOC as their standard text format for collaboration.
writing in org just to export to markdown sounds very silly. what's the point? Emacs has markdown-mode.
That would indeed be silly.
