The meaning of your markup is that you inserted and deleted some text
within each list item, not that you added or deleted a list item like
in mine. Semantically there is a difference, subtle maybe but still
there.
Also, while your markup gives the same visual rendering while using
the default browser stylesheet (which underlines <ins> and
overstrikes <del>), the result will be completely different if you
want to hide the inserted or deleted parts. Using this CSS rule:
del { display: none }
you'll see a one-item list for my markup, while for your markup
you'll see a second, empty list item.
