It looks counter-intuitive, though -- even if it is the spec. Especially for beginners, who might feel completely out of place. As other people have pointed out here, it's better to be implemented as a step of the build process if you really want to save on those bytes. Counter-intuitive patterns are nightmares for devs.
- mbrock 10y agoI don't think it's obviously more counterintuitive than the strict XHTML insistence on exact explicit hierarchy. Like, when you start a new paragraph it doesn't become a new "subparagraph", it just ends the current one and starts a new one. I really don't think it's hard. I do think omitting needless stuff creates more compact documents with less redundant boilerplate that distracts the eyes.
