           Summary: I think that for the first level of article h1 {…},
                    the size should be left as normal. For example, If I
                    start my article immediately after the body then I
                    would put an h1 in with the title of the document on
                    the page, often followed by an h2 with a sub

Comment:
I think that for the first level of article h1 {…}, the size should be left
as normal. For example, If I start my article immediately after the body then
I would put an h1 in with the title of the document on the page, often
followed by an h2 with a subtitle or author. Since I would be using h2s for
the subsections of the article (h3s for sub-subsections, etc), I would want a
difference in the sizes of the headers to differentiate sections to the
reader. If I had a long document with several articles in it (sequential, not
nested) I think this h1 being the size of an h2 would add confusion to what
precisely is nested.
