That's your opinion, nothing more than that. Don't pretend to own the truth. LaTeX is designed so an author can focus on the content and not on the layout or other issues because that's automatically handled by the typesetting system. Saying that somebody using LaTeX is more focussed on technology than the production of a book is just plainly ignoring reality, I'm afraid (I've written lots of papers and some books and book chapters with LaTeX, so I know what I am talking about). I'm not here to convince anybody of using LaTeX, certainly not if the task at hand is simply sharing a few pages and not the production of a professionally looking book. But LaTeX was definitely worth a shot given the original inquiry which lacked some detail.
