A lot of people read sentences like: "HTML is now an Internet
standard maintained by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The
most recent version is HTML 4.01, though it has been superseded
by XHTML." (http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Programming:HTML) and
see that a fine online website that teaches website standard
markup uses it (htmldog.com) draw some obvious and reasonable but
false conclusions. The problem is a runaway train, it is unlikely
to be able to be stopped and put on a slower steadier controlled
course.
