Uh, I suppose you could do that in very simple situations where you don’t need any layout control or advanced typography and just want to nicely typeset some text for print or distribution.
As for the only thing missing from markdown being comments: Sorry, but I can’t follow you there. CTAN currently hosts 6827 packages written by 3105 contributors, all of which covers things markdown cannot even remotely do.

Similarly, Typst currently has 478 contributed packages.
Don’t take that as criticism. Markdown isn’t meant to do any of those things.
