I completely agree: LaTeX is a typesetting tool. Nothing more. When I had some time at work, I started LaTeX-ing a large technical manual. I had to build, then rebuild, then rebuild over and over to get the formatting right. But what kept me going was the unbelievably beautiful typography (not so beautiful content) that finally emerged ... I do share the author's frustration with the tools to use LaTeX, but I'm not sure there's a way around it, because setting LaTeX can be idiosyncratic.
