Here's your problem

Deprecated
A deprecated element or attribute is one that has been outdated by newer constructs. Deprecated elements are defined in the
reference manual in appropriate locations, but are clearly marked as deprecated. Deprecated elements may become obsolete in future
versions of HTML.

deprecate
To make invalid or obsolete by removing or flagging the item. When commands or statements in a language are planned for deletion in
future releases of the compiler or rendering engine, they are said to be deprecated. Programmers should begin to remove them from
the source code in subsequent revisions of their programs
Any HTML that a class can achieve is by definition redundant, so by definition it MAY become obselete
(as its function is doubled up)
So because w3 want attention, they call 'redundant' 'deprecated' as if they control HTML, but their definition
of deprecated is weak, all they say is it MAY become obsolete, meaning its redundant. The real meaning
is it WILL become obselete.
So all you nitwits are reading about redundant code going..... its deprecated!
Of course, considering style sheets are just a secondary system, redundancy is fine and so are the original HTML tags.
style="margins:0" is also redundant, but its not deprecated simply because its the new way to do it.
"been outdated by newer constructs"
