Because the "std" tags are, well, standard? ;-) Seriously, all things being
equal (and it's not always obvious when they are), I opt for JSTL because it's
now a standard and its expression language has been incorporated into the JSP
2.0 spec. A tag like <html:link> can't be replaced by JSTL because it can make
direct use of the framework ("action" and "forward" attributes), it's not just a
"utility" tag.
