I would disagree with 80% of the formatting coming from the raw HTML. Can you give any examples other than such oddments as hx tags bolding/enlarging text or blockquote adding left/right margins? Or are you thinking of the abominations created when the author uses inline styles? Is an ebook that looks like a simple text document a shining example of the genre?
