Since the person writing the code is writing Scheme already, requiring
the inner markups to be in Scheme is a reasonable restriction, IMO.
That said, it would be nice if #{ #} could be made to work, but I not
enough insight into how it works.

What is the rationale for putting the markups in a separate module?
