That's a very heavy argument against EmbPOV. It would be a great thing if we
could just have a very few basic features, say clipped by, pattern wrap and
maybe one or two other and make it a generic syntax for alternative code.

Despite all cons, it improves quality of the POV output, quality that cannot be
added any other way. Therefore I think it really should be allowed, but of
course totally optional.
Another pro is that we already have EmbPOV in the official Parts library.
