Again, you are wrong. You are wrong saying that empty spans are autmatically useless and dont do anything in the styling, and you are wrong that numerical font weights do not works with ADE or ADE based devices.
In RMDSK (ADE), empty spans don't do anything. They just bloat the code. You can take them out and the ePub will still display exactly the same.

The way font-weight works with numbers is to be able to change the weight not just normal and bold. So no, it doesn't actually work as intended. 500 should have more weight than 400 (normal) and 600 should have more weight than 500, but less than 500. 900 should have more weight than bold. So if these things do not happen, then it does not work and it doesn't happen so it does not work.
