In which way is "void" better than "empty"?
The sentence "<p></p> is an empty element since it has no content, but p
is not an empty element." is more confusing.
More confusing than what? (Is that hypothetical sentence more confusing
than "<p></p> is a void element since it has no content, but p is not a
void element."?)
Previously, "empty element" was used as a technical term, and <p></p>
was not called an empty element. If somewhat calls it that way, doesn't
that just call for a correction and a pointer to a definition, rather
than changing the term?
