I thought it was important to talk about this topic, as it's a nice example of one of the core themes of the book: That separating content from presentation is important, and beneficial, and swapping out <b> and <i> tags for their structural equivalents (when conveying emphasis) can be a simple way of helping to achieve that separation.
So, the next time you hear someone announce, "Yes, you should always use <strong> instead of <b>," you'll now have some reasoning to back that statement up.
In most cases, it's appropriate to use <strong> or <em> when conveying emphasis. And when a visual bold or italic is all that you're after, use CSS.
