No.  Like you, I can't see anyone realistically using both Taskpaper and 
Org-mode.  It's purely an academic argument as it's not going to happen, 
but hypothetically if Taskpaper had adopted a subset of Org's syntax 
then you could more easily exchange files between Org and Taskpaper users.

For example, you *might* be able to convince your mum to use Taskpaper 
but there's no way she'd ever use Emacs and Org-mode.

Personally, I'll never require such a thing.
