IMHO it has always been a _lightweight markup language_, used for
notes and TODO tasks, then soon enough for exporting too.
I got interested to Org back circa 2006 after I stopped working on a
small library called bhl.el: https://www.nongnu.org/bhl/
BHL was a lightweight markup language targetting export only. Org was
vastly superior in all accounts, so I contributed to Org.
