That people produce HTML with string templates is telling us something
"Nobody ever generates JSON using string interpolation." Oh boy, you just took me back to my first ever PHP project. Feast your eyes: https://github.com/oxguy3/phpStageManager/blob/master/events...
This file generates a feed of events (rehearsals for my high school play) to be rendered by the FullCalendar JS plugin. FullCalendar required a particular data schema that didn't match the format of my MySQL table, which meant I couldn't just json_encode() the MySQL results. I guess I just didn't conceptualize that I could create a new object that matched the FullCalendar format, and then call json_encode(). So, I generated JSON with strings.
Honestly it's a toss-up whether the JSON generation is the worst thing about this file. It looks like I also made a separate database query for every single row to get the username, because I apparently didn't know how to do joins. Could probably spend an hour listing some of the other little nuggets of awful in there. But hey, it got the job done! :)

XSLT has a steep learning curve and it’s extremely verbose. But my main problem with it is that (as far as I know) XHTML isn’t being updated alongside the current HTML spec (with semantic elements).
Related: I’ll admit that I used to use XSLT for my static site generators [1] and now I’ve switched to string interpolation (with conservative escaping as the default) [2].
