I'm not sure what Pierre was thinking. It could be that: 1) He doesn't realize that it was a block of instructions separate from the main body of instructions that readers can just elect not to perform. 2) He doesn't have a laTeX installation so he cannot test the instructions, and simply removed them. 3) He has a bit of dictatorship in him, and is adamant that folks use a browser to view HTML docs. What galls me the most is that I would never have said anything after I saw the commit removing my work, but then coming on to -dev and complaining that Bruce reverted his work, when in actuality it was Pierre who reverted a previous editor's work. Additionally, the work was deleted and not commented out. Ouch.
