But why? <p class='indent'> makes it obvious and the performance hit on a modern reader device is not noticeable.

I find EPUB3 coding really annoying when having to back trace thru 5 levels to find why a stupid title page does not fit on a single screen on my Libra2 (1264 x 1680? ). FWIW I adjust so it also works on my Aura 2 and it looks just fine.
OMG, this is exactly how I feel. I prefer my classes to spell out exactly what each one is doing without requiring me to work my way through multiple previous levels to discover what has been overridden. Ebooks are simple. It's not that hard to define a class that tells you everything you need to know about what it does. (By the way, has anyone noticed that some ebooks published by some college presses tend to have overly complicated CSS? I think they hire students who want to show off, lol.)
