I think the point that a lot of people are missing is that the library is just tag ambivalent. The demo code uses divs, but of course you don't have to use divs. You can use whatever tag you like. It's hard to see why that could be construed as anything other than an advantage. If you like <button> tags then by all rights use button tags. It makes sense that the demo code would use divs, because to do otherwise would imply that a certain tag is required for the css to work.
