I didn't note this earlier. Advice is often seen on this group to not
choose an element because of it's default style. Isn't the reverse
true as well? Don't choose ul because of the default style? Don't
choose address because of it's defaut style? Seems like the same
arguments can be used for this as don't choose h1 because it's bigger
but because it's a level 1 header.
I'm not arguing, especially with Jukka whom I respect, just asking for
clarification. I can go along with not using address after reading the
definition, but list? An address does seem like a list to me. So what
if the default style has bullets.

This one makes a lot of sense to me.
