    I dunno. It's just interesting. It's all semantics – what better tags could be used? Sections, to me, just seem more correct as an area of a site, not an area within an article. It seemed like a content region within a site. But what better tag could have been used? They both make sense and the documentation clearly defines it as used correctly in my post above.

    It's also confusing to define things within both a <head> and a <header>, if you ask me. They're revamping semantics anyway, why not have the <head> be something more semantically correct? <include> would have been a better way to tackle that, I think. I have a lot of qualms with the structure of HTML as it is, but really can't offer a better solution.

    Personally, I don't think HTML5 is semantically sound enough. In terms of accessibility, it's to the point where anyone should be able to approach html with relative ease. I think it *needs* to be, given technology now. But when you have people who (I assume) are using it every day debating semantics, clearly there needs to be a few more rounds of revisions. And that sucks.
