Oh cool I need to revisit MyST then. I thought it didn't support cross-references but it looks like I'm wrong: https://myst-parser.readthedocs.io/en/v0.13.7/using/syntax.h...

I will have to dig into exactly how much parity we're talking here but if it's very strong parity then I redact my previous statement

Thanks for correcting me!




It works with all docutils and Sphinx roles, and almost all directives, including extensions.

A notable exception is autodoc (automodule, autoclass, etc.), and any other directives that generate more rST. The current workaround is to use eval-rst:
