I disagree. If the purpose of the PDF is just to create a simple table for the 
data, then fine. But if you want to have some nicer layout, RML makes your 
life *much* simpler, since it allows a designer to work at the template and 
is much easier to maintain. You would not create HTML all in Python either, 
or?
