Nonsense. They are primitive tools that we use just in lack of more useful
checkers. Besides, there's really no such thing as "HTML validator". It's an
SGML validator, or XML validator, or both, and if you use it for HTML
documents, that's your decision.

But at least validators are what they claim to be, modulo a few bugs
perhaps, and not half-baked checkers sold under an intentionally misleading
name like "CSE HTML Validator".
