The whole exchange can be summed up to this: you think that template
logic can replace PHP. I, however, say that it can't. Having
conditionals and automatic loops is far from being a programming
language that can replace PHP logic. Even if I tried, I couldn't replace
any one of the PHP scripts with what logic spec talks about. No way.
