Before you send others to read those, why not have a look yourself?

You might want to take notice that the exporters do exactly nothing
without org-element and org-element defines Org syntax and nothing else.

This too depends on the rest of Org to figure out what it is looking at
and where to place the actual content (and then find it again).

Again, it relies heavily on the infrastructure provided by Org.

There are bits and pieces in Org that would likely benefit from
generalization that might re-factor them out of Org (or not, since
nobody tried yet).  But such refactoring would be a lot of work and
you won't be able to contribute, so…
