I don’t agree that HTML grammar is easy, but either way it’s objectively more complicated than Gemini markup. I also don’t agree that web layout is easy. Dillo, for example, is not the best document-viewing experience (even when I’ve designed for it specifically) despite putting in much more effort than I’d be willing to.
Also, if this[1] is your HTML parser, it doesn’t look like an actual HTML parser with implicit tags and error correction, just a parser for some easy subset of HTML. If we’re not going to be web-compatible anyway, why not spec a language that’s actually good?
