---------------
There are template statements for replacing entire tags, their
contents, or just some of their attributes. You can repeat a tag
several times or omit it entirely. You can join parts of several
templates together, and specify simple error handling. All of
these capabilities are used to generate document structures.
Despite these capabilities, you **can't** create subroutines or
classes, perform complex flow control, or easily express complex
algorithms. For these tasks, you should use Python-based Scripts
or application components.

Please give examples of "subroutines or classes, perform complex flow control, or easily express complex
algorithms"

If you really want to emphasize "can't", you should spell out "cannot".
