If you did that, I would just put my numbering into character data.
Why? Because the WD does not making CSS support a requirement for
XHTML2-conformant user agents. Therefore, a user with styles disabled
should still receive all of my content.

A basic problem is that "both lists" seen above. Why do we still have
ol AND ul
in XHTML?
(a) the names are incorrectly chosen. ul is really not unordered, it
is
un-numbered. ol is not more ordered than ul, it's just numbered.
(b) the styles can be controlled by CSS anyway
