If we look for in french typographic rules, we see that the underlined 
does not have any sense. But what about english typographic rules ?
The underlined did not exists in typography lead. It's an invention from 
typewriter. Indeed, we could not write a bold or italic text, so it was 
used to replace bold and italic.
So the underlined has --- generally --- not reason to be used. So why 
created <u> tag ?

I don't understand why we created <u> while it's not correct to use.
