My question isn't about how to nest headings properly
E823 - 1 instance(s): Heading elements must be ordered properly. For example, in HTML H2 elements should follow H1 elements, H3 elements should follow H2 elements, etc. Developers should not skip levels (e.g., H1 directly to H3). Do not use headings to create font effects. See http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10-HTML-TECHS/#document-headers (displayed in new window).
I am curious how much benefit it goes to accessibility. What ill effect it has on assistive user agents if headings are not nested properly.
Semantically, I fully understand the need for proper order of heading elements, but in real world practice, I have yet noticing any site that follow this to the letter, and it's more than a challenge for a complicated columned layout that designer tends to use h3 for every bold text title.
