CSS was meant to divide presentation from content.

Well, yes - so now the argument

"<hr> has semantic value" vs. "No it doesn't"

can be reduced to

"<hr> is content" vs. "No it's not"

For myself I'm convinced in favor of "has semantic value"/"is content": the meaning may be subtle but nevertheless IS meaning. I'd go on to say that the meaning persists (or should) whatever the presentational context, be it a tale told around the camp fire (raconteur pauses for deep pull on whiskey flask) or a company's annual report in print (***********) or on the web (<hr>).

<div class="notASeparatorISwear"></div>

.notASeparatorISwear{content:hahaYesItIs.gif}

(Can one say ROFL here?!)
