Partially agree, it matters what conformance checkers implement and in the case of <main>. the major HTML conformance checker will implement the conformance rules in the W3C HTML spec. This will leave the WHATWG spec not matching reality. It should also be noted that as implemented in browsers <main> is implemented as per the W3C spec i.e. <main> is mapped to role=main and because of this <main> is interpreted by AT as a main landmark already. This leaves the WHATWG spec not matching reality. Beyond the priorities and domain of the browser vendors is the conformance requirements and advice the HTML spec provides to authors which can directly impact the experience for users. So I suggest non browser differences matter very much. regards SteveF
