I don't - I'm bored rigid with the things. The unknowing flapping their
chops over the unknowable.
HTML has trivial to negligible semantics and there's little you can do
about it. It has little enough you can do within your own CMS (where you
know the meaning of id and class vocabularies) and almost none of this
is communicable to the outside world.
There are a few vague rules that allow us to suspect that one design is
"better" than another, but none of these really go so far as "good" and
certainly not to "best" or "the one true solution". The only thing we
really can know with any confidence is that any confident and dogmatic
statement is itself unsupportable and wrong.
