A lot of people are arguing that HTML burns more tokens than markdown. It's true but you can save at least 40% by externalizing the CSS to a template with <link rel="stylesheet" href="./styles.css">. This style.css is your formatting so the LLM will never output CSS again.

I assume that if it isn't already happening, future models will have instructions to maximize token usage.
