Use whatever works best for you, but I would point out that template mixins 
and string mixins are completely different. I said string mixin and you 
mentioned template mixin. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, but 
they're two separate things. But yes, if you can do it with a normal template, 
that will likely result in prettier-looking code.
