Because the crux of your argument was that non-visual editors are effectively useless, which simply isn't true, and just because it shows correctly in the browsers you use and ranks well in the SERPs doesn't mean that it won't lead to problems for users with disabilities, nor that other aspects such as bandwidth usage and disk space, particularly on larger sites with millions of hits per day could be vastly improved if people coded to the standards and cut out a lot of the bloatcode that WYSIWYG editors add.
