You are correct, of course. I always get those two mixed up. But my point still stands. Judging things by what they were created to do is hardly relevant to what they actually can (and DO) do.

Yes. Some HTML tags (many) have been later given semantic meaning, because there is much flexibility.

Paraffin (Kerosene) was originally a replacement for whale and rape (Canola) oils in lamps and now used for jet engines (cleaned version), trucks and home heating.

Though not sure if it was silly putty or play doh or even Plasticine, but it was only to remove soot.

Edit
[* rape comes from Latin for turnip. Olive, Sesame and Rape oils used according to region for lamps for 1000s of years, now only for cooking and food additives]
