You're wrong on that. Just think about a little bit. How could a 
hierarchy be more flexible than the free form nature of a language? If 
you think so, try to formulate your next sentence in a tree structure. 
 
The success of HTML was not a fluke. The marked up language is a simple 
yet very powerful concept. That's why the interface of Mozilla is done 
through a marked up language. It's also why the next generation Windows 
user interface is based on a marked up language. You know those Vista 
gadgets? Powered by HTML. 
 
The widget library is an idea. Marked up language is the future.
