I'm sort of lost on the idea of this and Boiler Plate. Is HTML really this difficult to use? I don't understand why these are less confusing than the very well-written WHATWG documentation. [1]
I'm not really sure who the target is for these HTML 5 frameworks: brand new HTML users with no coding experience? This seems like a target that is completely lost anyways, as you are now enforcing some idea that they really won't understand anyways. Yeah, I get the idea, but I won't use it because writing correct and valid HTML5 is not hard at all.
Twitter Bootstrap has a very simple mission statement: give those who can't design the ability to create some minimally nice design. Why? Because design is very hard. HTML isn't.
