Perhaps.

That does not follow.  There is no reason
at all why any author might not wish to
use a sub-title before a title proper.
In most printed books, for example,
the half-title page precedes the
title page proper.  Whilst these are
not directly analogies, there is no
doubt in my mind that <H2> ... </H2>
<H1> ... </H1> can be justified where
it meets the authors intentions and wishes.
