I politely disagree. What does Tim Berners Lee’s opinion of anything have to do with anything? What use is Latex when I want a readable hardcopy of a web page?

What a good point! The web would be much nicer looking if browsers accepted pages written in LaTeX as well as pages written in HTML.
After all TeX is all about high quality printing on paper.
Browsers already accept PDF. TeX files aren't portable.
And as if browsers don't have enough bugs already -- now we include TeX?
Don has had the longest-running bug bounty of them all!
Not portable in what way?
In the unless-you-bring-the-development-machine-along-with-it kind of way.
Exactly. That's why they should handle device independent output.
MathML?
A TeX distribution on my computer (mactex) is like 4 gigabytes. Definitely not "bundle-with-a-web-browser" worthy.
Well, I want to retire and not have to work for another 30+ years, but I guess we do not always get what we want :(
