I don't require a cup to hold my drink. That doesn't make cups useless or undesirable.
Point being: if a machine can make sense of the veritable clusterfuck that is the "pile of infinitely-nested divs" status quo, then surely it'd have a much easier time making sense of pages that actually use HTML properly. If you're an AI trying to figure out how far along something is, which is gonna be a more obvious indicator?
<div id="reactElement420" class="wangularClass69"><div class="25-long red" visibility="hidden"/><div class="50-long yellow" visibility="hidden"/><div class="75-long green"/></div>
<progress max="100" value="69">69%</progress>
The first example is hyperbolic, sure, but only slightly.
