[Zope] Templates a step backwards?

Hi guys, I'm fairly new to ZOPE, and although I've stuck my toes in the water a few times now, I'm only starting to seriously look at it, and especially the new CMF/Templates/etc. I see why all this new stuff is being developed. What I'm not sure about is page templates. Are they really a good option, if you can life without WYSWYG editing? I mean, surely they're a step backwards, in that every page has to basically be a working document. Doesn't that bring in redundancy, with multiple pages holding the same basic layout, and having the potential to get out of sync? If not, then great -- I'll look forward to using them. But in that case, what have I missed? - Lee.
