The paragraph about plain text only applies to text/plain.

The following paragraph shows clearly that org-mode is rich-text,
because it can be read without specialized program. And it is: I
sometimes read org-mode documents with nano.

    This is information that must be processed by an application before it is
    viewable or usable by a user"

That is very much *not* the case for org-mode documents.

You’ll have to quote a specific point you mean, because I do not find
anything that supports your point in there.

Best wishes,
