Because intermixing Markdown and HTML is ambiguous, and if you're authoring HTML, you clearly know HTML already?
I'm not actually sure I believe this yet. But I think I'd see a lot more use case for something that lets me do a very tiny amount of things, maybe just headings and bold and italic, and avoids not only ambiguity but any risk of ambiguity.
Are you saying you shouldn't use HTML with markdown? Markdown was explicitly designed not to cover each and everything HTML, and so that you could fallback to HTML; it's kind of the entire point of markdown (or have I misunderstood you?).

When you build that, let me know. Until then I'll be over here, using a Perl script from 2004 that still works just fine.

It just feels like we've reinvented HoTMetaL (https://support.novell.com/techcenter/articles/img/ana199609...) but with bonus ambiguity.
