Let’s face it: LaTeX is only good for typesetting equations and not text. Compared to a thesis produced with InDesign, a LaTeX thesis has horrible typography — that’s why you can always tell when something was typeset with it, it always has that slightly odd feeling.
And if you need equations in your document, just typeset them in LaTeX and drop the PDF into your big boy typesetter
>inb4 muh plaintext editing
InDesign, or any typesetting package worth its salt, has Markdown/HTML import workflows. And the syntax for those languages are infinitely better than the verbose shitfest that is TeX.
>inb4 WYSIWYG is bad !!! xD
Documents are meant to be visually consumed. If you really think that trying to programmatically define good typography with thousands of lines of shitty code for every situation is more effective than using visual means to design a visual product then you should off yourself

I dont care about anything you just said. Fact is, if you dont use LaTeX for literally everything, you should not have the audacity to call yourself a scientist, or even a science enthusiast. Also probably kill yourself.
