I identify most with the incredible misuse of inline styles (I guess I could have just said “use” – its mere existence is a foul misuse).

I think that there are many conventions in web design that have worked in the past, and many wet-behind-the-ears web designers burst out of college and try to reinvent the wheel when it comes to structural, semantic, and navigational best practices. If I were to write a one-liner to describe this issue, I’d say “Standards are standards for a reason,” or “Don’t spin your wheels by trying to reinvent it.” Something clever like that.

Thanks for the post, Tom!
