Then I can't understand why we should:

1) build a new system
2) With pure printing abilities

instead of picking up something already used for documentation and which
converted to many formats?

I was pretty satisfied with old MySQL system (forgot what it was but it
generate a lot of formats), docbook also looks good enough.
