8.1.2.5. Restrictions on Content Model

Why have restrictions on the content model? If HTML5 allows these  
structures, then a UA should just degrade per backward-compatibility  
and an HTML document could use them.

I agree with the restrictions. However, rather than HTML5 requiring  
these restrictions, shouldn't the spec be written to disallow these  
structures in the content models in the first place?
