Irrational Exuberance

You are writing a comment about Intricate Static Websites With Django Templates, here is a quick summary:

Over the weekend I needed to create a slightly complex static website, and decided to make a go at using Django templates to build it. I was not disappointed.

Ahh, yes, I completely forgot about the filter template tag. Thanks for reminding me. If only you'd been there a few hours earlier while I was writing it...

I think the approach has promise, essentially adding a potent pre-processing layer to static (or even PHP or what not) projects. And it doesn't require anything special on your deployment server, which is a small blessing for people working on shared servers or who aren't latent system administrators.
