Since IE/Mac has been abandoned by Microsoft, any code that doesn't work on
it today is highly unlikely to work on it anytime in the future.

CSS doesn't enforce any "one true way" of doing things.

You are? How on earth do you do image swapping with HTML? Its pretty easy
with JavaScript, but HTML doesn't have any facility for that sort of thing.
