Nobody was talking about any software not understanding CSS, but about inline
styles. So again: *inline styles* are key accessibility problem.

Besides, it has been proved, that this feature does in certain cases wrong
conversions, so in certain cases the mispositioning of elements causes
overlapping or disappearing of content which obviously is an accessibility
issue even for people with good eyes.
