Good point. Apparently (MDN) there should only be 1 main on a page, and it should not include sidebars, generic headers/footers repeated on other pages, etc.
So, you might have a site-wide header, a main containing a content-specific header / content / footer, and then a site-wide footer.
Not sure how useful that would be, but interesting to me as a sometime web hacker.

I think it is more related to whether your header and footer are actually the main content of your page, which may vary from page to page.
