Yes, communicating intent to other programmers and our future selves is hard, so let's not do it.

well, sometimes. yes.

the semantics of most html elements is useless to know for more devs (and classes don't help users)

in fact a class like .red conveys more useful information to a developer than .standout-link because when we go to change the colour of the button it's the colour we care about, not the "purpose" of the button
