HTML5 does not do deprecation. By your reasoning <plaintext>,
<isindex> etc. should also be conforming which doesn't make much
sense to me.
So you don't see any difference between documents using style
attributes (allowed in HTML4), and documents using <isindex>
(deprecated in HTML4) or <plaintext> (not present in HTML4)?
They were allowed in previous "versions" of HTML. So not really. As I
see it we just need to design a language independent from HTML4 with the
constraints we have.
Well,
if the difference between
(a) in HTML3, but dropped in HTML4, almost no use in current Web content,
(b) in HTML3, deprecated in HTML4, only little use (?) in current Web
content, and
(c) in HTML4, and widely used in current content
seems insignificant to you, then, I guess, there's little point in
continuing this conversation.
Best regards, Julian
