 Why can't the other post formats be custom post types? status certainly
 could be a post type. its the same reason. because its not really a
 different post type, its just a different "format" for a post. I do not
 understand your argument for that? If post format wasn't built to change
 the layout/formatting between a 300-500 word post, and a 1500-2500 word
 post, then what the heck are post formats for? and yes, I've already read
 nacin's article. I don't see how "longform" doesn't fit the post format
 standardized mold.
