Reflect on our interaction:
Q "What is this good for?"
A "You can do this, and that"
Q "Yes, but what can I do with it?"
A "OK, look at this manual and that blog post"
Q "Yes, but what can I actually *do* with it?"
If you feel you aren't missing anything, perhaps Org
isn't for you?

Comparing the HTML of that page with its Org source
I know which alternative I *don't want* to edit.
Plus the fact that Org executes the code snippets
and inserts their results (text and graphics) for
me -- in the Emacs buffer, and in the HTML output
(and in the LaTeX output, the PDF output and the
LibreOffice output too).
Perhaps there's no use for you in it. There are
people doing their invoices happily in Postscript.
I do prefer LaTeX (and am actually converting to
Org at the moment -- a higher level of abstraction,
if you wish [1]).
Cheers
[1] To be more precise: (La)TeX does have \newcommand,
thus the basic abstraction mechanism: thus you can
choose your level of abstraction there. What Org
offers, beyond a nice interface, is a smoother
"abstraction protocol".
