Ok, let’s try again. I think encouraging authors to use classes on these
elements was a good thing because of the obvious problems with using them
without classes. And using them in (some of) the examples would help authors to
see the benefits of doing this.

Trying to weaken the text about the classes in these elements in order to avoid
making changes to the examples is not a solution to this, quite the opposite
actually. That said this does not have to mean that all examples that use b/i
elements have to use it.
