Content and markup are unrelated, and all attempts to put the two

reveal codes. That function is purely because people don't udnerstand
that markup and contents are two totally discongruent things, and
should have zero links between them. ]
I think this is overstated and that you are missing Robin's point.
I use styles, except for the quick and dirty on occasion, but I've dealt
with the kind of messes Robin has described, and indeed often don't have
a clue about how the ultimate document will be structured until I see
everything at once, start moving paragraphs and sections around, merge
the content of different sections which say the same thing, and so forth.
What Robin indicates is usually offered as the correct way to do things
in most cases ... don't worry overmuch about the final formatting until
the document is otherwise completed and the structure has gradually emerged.
