Thanks for the concise overview.
The ASCII string example is well chosen and nicely understandable. Though the conclusion at the end is a little unnuanced, after introducing it to my team and product owner a couple of years ago I come to the same evaluation. In the end you can add description strings to your tests that add just as much human readable documentation. Coming from a C# background I follow the SpecFlow material available on YouTube (youtube.com/channel/UCD0cb6YaIC7Dp...) and they are very motivated and engaged. It just doesn't translate to our reality.
