It *does* matter. Program code isn't written for computers to understand -
its written for people to understand. This kind of thing makes maintaining
the code very difficult and fraught with errors. You don't need a
templating system to seperate the HTML from the application logic - but
that doesn't mean you SHOULDN'T seperate the two.
