Commonality doesn't make it right. That's a concept I've never subscribed to since as fallacies go, bandwagon is the most evil and insidious.

LOTS of people write HTML wrong. I've spent the past 13 years fixing websites where people wrote it wrong and ended up in court because of it.

Your most recent replies reek of the bandwagon fallacy. There are whole slews of crazy nonsense people believe and do -- HTML/CSS frameworks, shoving jade eggs up the holiest of holies, bleach enema's for treating autism, racism, sexism, homophobia, fairy tale bullshit about a cruel capricious genocidal sky wizard who "loves us" -- doesn't make a single blasted one of them right.

"What people are doing" is not an argument that has ever swayed me. Hell that was the problem with the WhatWG, isntead of creating a specification to say what people should be doing, they created documentation of what people were doing wrong, and added tags to encourage that. Again see the mental-huffing midgetry of the dipshit HGROUP tag.

Clearly illustrating the people making HTML 5 didn't even understand the point of HTML.
