You didn't love the strict and unhelpful generic XML exception you got when you accidentally forgot to close a tag?

Don't blame bad tools on the language.

I thought the whole point of XML tags coming in named pairs was so you could be helpfully told which tag wasn't closed?

XHTML was a move by Big CMS to make edit-and-FTP error prone. Before that you rarely had to care whether the tag was closed.

Is this a joke? I genuinely can't tell.

Tell me you weren't there without telling me you weren't there. Big CMS hated it.
