really? It looks like the number one argument for using ZPT is
because it's compatible with "DreamReaper" and "GoDeath".

If people use it for other reasons, great. I think WSYSIWYG editors
are total crap for many reasons so Im with you on that one. I guess
the problem is that rarely does anyone point a reason that someone
should use TAL over DTML so I think my assumption is fair based on
available documentation. Whenever someone posts something about DTML
(which is not being deprecated, is not slower as far as I know and
does have some benefits over TAL depending on what you're doing) they
mostly get a comment like "Use TAL, not DTML". Why? Frankly, I dont
care how people choose to develop their products, there's benefits
and drawbacks to both TAL and DTML but I would tell someone to try
both and decide and not just tell them to use what I prefer.
