According to that link, .after() always returns a jQuery object. While
.html() can return either a jQuery object or a String, depending on
the arguments passed in.

If something returns a jQuery object, that means that its chainable
and that you can continue to add actions on to it (e.g.
$().after().html("foo").after()...)
