Glad the title was changed because this article isn't about HTML at all. Instead it seems to be about corporate/for-profit needs for their web applications that happen to touch HTML in some parts. All about throwing away the good parts of HTML to make laying out applications easier and prettier.
To this I say: go away and leave HTML alone if you want to build some application from first principles. The web's first principle is that HTML should have text. Hyper TEXT MARK-UP language.
