marimo has a quarto extension and a markdown fileformat [1] (marimo check works on this too!). The python fileformat was chosen such that "notebooks" are still valid python, but yes- the format itself is almost an implementation detail to most "notebook" users. Cells _are_ actually callable and importable functions though (you can give them a name), but the return signature is a bit different from what's serialized.

We might have to agree to disagree here, you can still chose to have your notebook in order and something you can be disciplined about. The difference is that a marimo notebook can't become unreproducible the same way a jupyter notebook can, _because_ the order doesn't matter.

But thanks for the feedback!
