Proficient-but-average users are not supposed to worry about specifications. They are supposed to use software written by other people who read the specifications. HTML was supposed to be simple enough that you could hand-code it if you were willing to make the investment in learning the specification, but not so simple that they can expect to create correct documents WITHOUT reading the specification (or a similar document).
