What a puzzling reply, HTML parsers are famously mistake-tolerant and convention driven. Its standard is almost a suggestion, there can be plenty wrong with it without causing practical everyday issues, as the modern web is very established.


Throwing any codepoint sequence at two separate compliant HTML5 parsers will result in the same DOM, and to my knowledge, all major browsers use compliant parsers.


I find more puzzling that the author, after declaring it "broken", offers a solution that is as broken but also laughable.
