Maybe that's too strong to say. Maybe they just don't care.

To make HTML to conform to the rules of XML is pretty bad idea. We have XHTML for that. But one very popular browser still does not support XHTML. > Their HTML > is simply appalling.

I think this better represents his understanding and care about web standards...
