Omitting a space is 'chaos'? As someone else remarked: this is a joke,
right?

At some point, graphical software will involve pixels. However, the only
time they are important is just before rendering. The units used in the
interim could be anything as long as they can be transformed.
In any case, your remarks are irrelevant. Length values require units
for non-zero values. Live with it. Even IE6 will ignore your nonsense
when rendering in 'Standards' mode.

IE implements standards. It just does it in an ad hoc, when it suits us,
manner.
That you would think that any one browser should try to take control
seems to imply that you want the chaos you disdained earlier. The
'browser wars' were caused by vendors trying to assert themselves on the
Web, and it only led to problems and polarisation.
Whether you can see it or not, standards are useful. If all browsers
implemented the various standards completely, then Web development would
be simpler (you'd have guaranteed behaviour) and users wouldn't be
exposed to the current lingering problems (why should a user have to
care what browser they use, and where).

Opera is a compliant browser when presented with decent markup. When
given junk, it assumes that it was written for IE and lowers itself to
that level. The only area in which it aims to accommodate IE is its
object model, where it can do what it pleases. It still implements the
W3C DOM and ECMAScript properly.

The law should protect people, and people are stupid. Making it reflect
their desires is a ludicrous idea.
