However, I'm not whether I like exploiting nesting order. It feels a bit hackish, and isn't as semantically unambiguous as Ben's initial example.

Yeah, I considered EM > STRONG and STRONG > EM as well but as you say, it's very hackish and in my interpretation of the semantics I come to one of two conclusions:

* Either EM > STRONG and STRONG > EM are equal, so couldn't represent different levels
or
* EM > STRONG is semantically invalid as ‘Strong emphasis’ is greater than ‘Emphasis’. It seems very wrong that EM can be the parent of another element which describes a larger, bigger application of the same semantic… unless we were to make EM inherit semantics from the little known TARDIS element.
