They were depreciated and then un-depreciated. It's a philosophical/political thing that some claim is about accessibility. I create ebooks in Calibre from docx input. The wordprocessor never outputs em and strong, it only results in <i> and <b>. There can be associated CSS, and then in the CSS the class used with i or b can perversely use em and strong if you want!
