The problem with textarea is, how it should be displayed, when
CSS is off? Should it default to 5, 10, 15, 20, ... rows? How
wide should it be? Wide enough to write a poem, or as wide as the
entire page?

But that's a UA issue, and UAs handle the same thing for inputs and selects already. Whether they do a good job or a bad one is certainly up for question, but taking the "what if CSS is off" approach can lead to an argument for reintroducing any presentational stuff back into the markup...i.e. it's a slippery slope.
