true (and the point is more about wording/mindset than substance) but I 
don't think it's helpful to describe the behaviour in the face of 
erroneous input as "fixing". Not only is the input not actually changed, 
The resulting tree is not described in terms of a tree that would be 
generated from valid input, the html5 spec simply (or not so simply:-) 
says how to parse all input, valid or not.
