Mat,
Sometimes I compare TW with TEX.

Wikipedia:  TeX was designed with two main goals in mind: to allow anybody 
to produce high-quality books using minimal effort, and to provide a system 
that would give exactly the same results on all computers, at any point in 
time.

While with TW we cannot produce books but we can do produce smaller parts 
in good quality and everybody else on other computer can get the same 
results!

TW is king of scripting language to produce web texts and elements.
