Re: Comment catcher: I Blame the W3C's HTML Standard for Ordered Lists

If you look at that, you'll discover that a good-faith broad effort to represent law, and mostly restricted to North Atlantic sorts of law at that, couldn't produce a reliable hierarchy of ordering. (someone's legal norms put the sections in the paragraphs, and so on.) So even a highly specialized effort has been unable to generalize enough to produce a standard markup for law.
There's a reason a push for generality has resulted in modern HTML div and spans and all the presentation information being explicit in styles. It's the most amount of structure that actually is fully general.
