I have nothing against Scribble. For me it is practical -- I have tons of mustache templates created for another web server, so I want to (mostly) just drop in a Racket web app to take over. Also, I need to support client side templates. Mustache (or as I like to remind myself c-templates) so something of a lingua franca. At least in my problem domain, c-template/mustache is a good match for data drawn from json document stores like couchdb.
