Do any of my followers know anyone at Mozilla? Because I want to hear from the person at Mozilla who decided it would be a good idea to teach beginning web developers that is the "Bring Attention To" tag and is the "Idiomatic Text" tag

(kudos to @aparrish for spotting this, it is making my brain melt)

1. : The Bring Attention To element The HTML element is used to draw the reader's attention to the element's contents, which are not otherwise granted special importance. This was formerly known as the Boldface element, and most browsers still draw the text in boldface. However, you should not use for styling text; instead, you should use the CSS font-weight property to create boldface text, or the element to indicate that text is of special importance.

2. : The Idiomatic Text element The HTML element represents a range of text that is set off from the normal text for some reason, such as idiomatic text, technical terms, taxonomical designations, among others. Historically, these have been presented using italicized type, which is the original source of the naming of this element.
