Why is it a no no? My personal rule of thumb is that as long as Reader Mode can render it fine (which implies coherent semantics), then the markup can do whatever it likes.
- globular-toast 3y agoBecause users should be able to make their own stylesheets and having a bunch of stuff in there that isn't relevant is annoying.

- Retr0id 3y agoYes, it's a whole thing, e.g. https://userstyles.world/ https://userstyles.world/ But, I don't think those `dquo-open-*` tags would get in the way at all.
