> the dark mode people are wrong

What is that supposed to mean? Some people find it more pleasant to read on a dark background (e.g. because of photophobia), some prefer it for aesthetic reasons (e.g. for a site about space exploration), how is that ‘wrong’?

In LaTeX you also clearly separate structure and typesetting: you don't write \noindent\textbf{Introduction}\nobreak\medskip or whatever, but simply \section{Introduction}

Macros are also pretty easy to define \newcommand\important[1]{\textcolor{red}{#1}}

And of course it has first-class Unicode support

I didn't know about math classes, thank you for the reference

The issue I have with delimiters is that there is no option for "big", but only for "140%" or whatever, making it harder to be consistent Someone created an issue on this on GitHub if I remember correctly

And automatically chosen sizes are often too large

The main problem I have with Typst compared with LaTeX is that it doesn't handle basic fine typographic features, such as the different types of spacing in mathematical mode (mathop, mathbin, mathrel, etc.) or the size of delimiters (big, bigg, etc.)
