Why doesn't Roam have templates built-in, like Notion?

I like that is unopinionated about templates. Adding any kind of “default” makes way to many assumptions about the user, and their specific needs. Better to encourage Roamers to integrate other systems like KM that do the same thing with way more custom flexibility
I'm not suggesting it provide a default. The entire point of attributes is to build structure, like a table. I shouldn't have to create a text expansion setting for all the attribute structures I use (e.g. metadata for books, articles, people, etc).
If I define my own structures in, say, [[Book Template]], there should be an easy way to duplicate this structure any where I want, in a mobile browser.
