I think the reason why we don't view HTML as a programming language is because it is explicitly designed to be a markup language that declares content rather than a series of instructions that is interpreted as a program. A program needn't demonstrate turing completeness to be a "computer program", it just needs to be a sequence of instructions that a computer executes. To me, that suggests that there's a degree of abstractness and subjectivity involved. For example, any SVG document could also be rewritten 1:1 with no loss in fidelity as a series of commands that has the same effect, as can pretty much any declarative markup language; what is actually happening during parsing is hard to distinguish from an interpreter. Humans can "know it when they see it", but I doubt there's an exact criteria that can go along with the human "feel" of what makes a program, a program.
