That was just an example.

Since HTML is a specialisation of SGML there are certain rules that
apply to have it valid. It doesn't matter which tags are used but how.
Not having correct and parsable HTML will mean that browser will
randomly mess it up or not render at all which is what should be
circumvented by all means; or why would one write HTML docs Joe user
can only read in a texteditor because <insert your favourite browser
here> won't display it?

I wouldn't advocate standards if I was working for this company.
