You're right, but in my defense I didn't actually put a huge amount of thought into it because
a) I doubt any decision-makers would see it
b) since they've just 'redesigned' the site <coff> I don't think they'd be keen to spend more money
c) the job would be a *%^& nightmare ... I wrote it to tell them it doesn't work - the job pitch was just an afterthought!

Three cheers for Web Standards evangelism! Kudos for making the effort to spread the gospel, but I don't know if I agree with the approach. Fair enough that you'd like to win the job, but the end of the email starts sounding like marketing spam. A political approach might be more effective for getting them to think about it because the last thing any government department wants to think about is more costs and they could be to short-sighted to consider the long-term gains...
