If one takes the position that what is is and is not
to be improved without grandfathering what is, there
is no application and no room for improvement.
This tautologically defines a way away from innovation
and that is becoming a habit at the W3C.
Hardcoding HTML into a gencoding system got it out

complexity. The problem of the WWW is that the
commercial practice of shelving a product past it's useful
lifecycle has never been practiced.
