Makes me want to absolutely pull my hair out.

One of the things make me say that "I do not love EPUB3" is this. I'd like to have a semantic way to build interactive and digital books. EPUB3 is not this: it has poor semantic and often web oriented. If something is missing (like: "everything"), you have to use javascript. But javascript is, in EPUB3 guidelines, something cosmetic, non structural. So: a fallback in a interactive ebook is actually a static ebook. So, it is not a real fallback, it is another thing.
