Because I think that section 12.2 of the current HTML specification is outrageous. (The section is "Parsing HTML documents", if anyone is not familiar with it make sure to look at the subsections "Tokenization", "Tree Construction", etc.)
(That said, I appreciate your detailed comment; this is important history that too few people are aware of.)
(Also overenthusiasm for all things XML had nothing to do with RDF. RDF is not XML.)
