<Snipped quote by Byrd Man>

In a lot of instances I'd agree with you.  But Ted lends himself to some snappy dialogue heavy stuff and I think the quick visual cues are worth the pain in the arse coding issues in order to streamline readability without constant "Ted said"/"the Blue Beetle quipped"/"Kord joked"/etc.

That’s what dialogue formatting in prose is for though. New dialogue is a new line. If it’s back-and-forth between 2 it’s easy to follow. If there’s 3/4/more speakers you might need some more clarifiers but we don’t really need a rainbow to replace long-standing grammar techniques.
