And the clincher on that still is
"Until either CSS2 is widely supported or user agents
allow users to control rendering of lists through other means,
authors should consider providing contextual clues in
unnumbered nested lists."

Another consideration is also that this seems to me, in this
particular case, to contradict

"6.1 Organize documents so they may be read without style
sheets. For example, when an HTML document is rendered
without associated style sheets, it must still be possible
to read the document."

If the numbering is set via CSS2, then without an associated
style sheet the numbering won't match (if, for instance, you're
doing a table of contents with the numbering reflecting the
number given to sections/headings).
