<h2>Common mistakes/misconceptions</h2>
<h3>Mistake 1: Treating HTML as a Programming Language</h3>
<p>Have you ever wondered why styling breaks the moment you forget a single closing tag? (We've all stared blankly at a screen wondering why our brilliant logic vanished.) But HTML is a markup language, not programming logic—yet beginners constantly treat it like a Python script. Because it lacks variables and conditionals, expecting it to handle dynamic state transitions is like asking a paper blueprint to physically build the house.</p>
<h3>Mistake 2: Overusing Presentational Tags</h3>
<p>And what about the eternal temptation to lean on outdated presentational tags because it feels faster in the moment? You might save three seconds today, only to spend three days untangling a maintenance nightmare tomorrow. Because browsers try so hard to be forgiving, bad markup gets rendered anyway, which ironically rewards sloppy habits until your entire codebase collapses under its own weight.</p>
<h3>Mistake 3: Neglecting Semantic Structure</h3>
<p>Because screen readers and search engines rely entirely on proper semantic elements like <code><article></code> and <code><nav></code>, building entire layouts out of endless generic <code><div></code> wrappers actively sabotages accessibility. We fiercely defend our clever CSS hacks while completely ignoring the structural foundation meant to make the web universally readable.</p>
