because:

see attached image, or render this in paper-layout so you see the line wrapping

``blah blah blah,'' said the immitation count, wrapping himself with

<datoms|<macro|x|<tabular|<tformat|<cwith|0|0|0|0|cell-background|pastel
yellow>|<table|<row|<cell|<arg|x>>>>>>>|lines of a paragraph, the lines of a

lines of a paragraph have been implemented.

These primitives are used to decorate <em|a posteriori> the <todo|lines of a
paragraph, the lines of a page, or the pages of a document.> Currently, only
decorations of atoms on lines of a paragraph have been implemented.

datoms has it's minor problems, the environment in which the render
macro is evaluated is unrelated to the one in which the text was
evaluated but it shouldn't be a problem normally, and use of quasi and
friends should help in other cases to preserve some of the environment
in a closure-like macro.
