Otherwise you might just as well claim that computers should generally think for you. After all, they are much more often used than invented... It doesn't help that a standard is nice to the user/author, if it can't realistically be implemented with current technology. Today it's easier to create a fairly complete operating system than a fairly complete web browser! And even the most advanced existing browsers still implement only a fraction of what W3C has devised. -antrik-
