I often feel annoyed too but CSS what we have been given to work with. Instead of wasting time being annoyed that reality does not match our expectations it is better for our health to swallow the bitter (red?) pill, accept reality and learn CSSs idiosynchracies. The page http://book.mixu.net/css/ shoud help.

While reading that page, it is helpful to make flashcards like you are a med student. In fact "flashcards are a good idea" is probably a good piece of advice for gaining a mental model of a system which was the result of more incremental evolution than all-at-once intelligent design.
