But when you do really something advanced, you see your ZPT object is fullfilled
lots of <span tal:bla ... /> with omit-tag things. As result, you see your ZPT
template object nor easier to read neither less complex in general.

Second: to get ZPT look good, you need separate your single DTML in dozen of PythonScripts
and several ZPT objects. Does it makes life more easy?

Third: I found in general when you do DTML, this is much less to write.

Other funny thing is: ZPT invented for people to get Zope more easy. Ironically, DTML
still more easy and more simple...

Clue: ZPT and DTML both are OK. The only different where you use it.
