How to use a custom server-side template engine (e.g., Markdown) instead of the built-in *.phtml engine?

How are the «*.phtml» templates rendered?

How is Magento\Framework\View\TemplateEnginePool implemented and used?

The block instance is passed to the «*.phtml» templates as $block variable, not $this
