Here are 2 reasons for making TITLE a required element in HTML.
a) so that every HTML document has a descriptive title even
if the document body is omitted.
b) to allow the HEAD and BODY start and end tags to be omitted.
an SGML technicality then forces you to make at least one
element in the HEAD required.
