No, it says it's a block element: <!ENTITY % block "P | %heading; | %list; | %preformatted; | DL | DIV | NOSCRIPT | BLOCKQUOTE | FORM | HR | TABLE | FIELDSET | ADDRESS"> The fragment you quoted specifies the content model of the div element: it can contain flow elements. > which is why I suggested removing it, they don't > carry different semantics. Yes they do; see many explanations in this thread. text is a block of text, a tspan is a span ("subsection") of a text block. You can use them like this; it works well. The limitations this thread discusses are not related to anything requiring removal of this element; it's not a duplicate of text.
