We can and should do better, if for no other reason than trust me, in one-two years, you won't remember what the hell you thought you were doing with span class X and p class Y. :-) I learnt that lesson long ago, when I got back ePUBs for revision and thought "what the holy hell was I thinking?" Better to use commenting and to clearly name what we're doing. Laziness is all well and good if it won't come back to bite you in the ass, but in my line of work, I can say that ass-biting is all too often a result.
