> is <span> any more semantic that <b>, <i>, <em>, or <strong> ?

On scanning it seems there were responses but none with respect to the
spec, which is usually very helpful: <span> (as well as <div>) have
literally no meaning—“[t]he span element doesn't mean anything on its
own” [1], “[t]he div element has no special meaning at all” [2].
