I'm taking a closer look at Eric Neilsen's "E= macs org-mode examples and cookbook," specifically the org file Eric s= ent me. And right off the bat I see something interesting:

** General metadata

An initial group sets = the metadata used in any title pages, headers,
footers, etc. used= by the various exporters:

#+NAME: orgmode-header-= metadata
#+BEGIN_SRC org
#+TITLE: =C2=A0 =C2=A0 Emacs o= rg-mode examples
#+AUTHOR: =C2=A0 =C2=A0Eric H. Neilsen, Jr.
#+EMAIL: =C2=A0 =C2=A0 neilsen@fn= al.gov
#+END_SRC

. . . which shows u= p in the final html version as just=C2=A0

#+TITLE: =C2=A0 =C2=A0 Emacs org-mode examples
#+AUTHOR: = =C2=A0 =C2=A0Eric H. Neilsen, Jr.
#+EMAIL: =C2=A0 =C2=A0 neilsen@fnal.gov

Why did he use what looks like babel source formatting? What is gaine= d from having org "code" as literate programming? Any docs talkin= g specifically about this, best practices? My first guess is he's just = using this as an org-to-html formatting convention, but, again, how much of= "org code" (whatever we call "org code") can I put in = babel source containers?
