The future of education is plain text
Not sure it's so simple. Is LaTeX plain text? Officially it is, but by the same standard so is PostScript or PDF.
Truly the limits are blurry. Even assembly code has an ASCII representation.

Well, plain LaTeX is quite readable, so IMO, it's good enough of a compromise. It does get difficult with a lot of parentheses though.
