(in addition to what Chris Rockwell mentioned) Both selectors basically target the same element; 'nav li' has some advantages, such as less work to type (and thus slightly reduce the bloat in a stylesheet) and faster to read; it is faster to parse for the browser, it doesn't have such a high specificity (high specificity is something ok when you really, really need it). In a similar fashion, your 'nav ul li a' in another thread could easily be written as 'nav a'.
