So, without getting into heated debates about whether or not using template
engines is a good thing (had that debate a few times already), I'm assuming
from the reactions that it would technically not lead to any difficulties
within Typo3?

Oh, if you're actually interested in what I think about using template
engines, I wrote a little something here quite a while ago:

I was working for a different company back then. My opinions have changed a
bit over time. I think it's very much dependent on the situation. I also
agree with Kasper on the restriction issue. And like Martin, I'm tired of
the discussion too :)
