Sure, the generalized statement is a bit iffy, but in this case, the number of users, ease of implementation, and utility of the feature make the lack of constants inexcusable. Bon's argument sounds pretty silly.
Explain to me why we should be stuck with one standards group's idea of how to organize style information, when an app-layer implementation of the same idea imposes no cost to end users, adds flexibility, and doesn't force the whole web to rush to standardize an idea that sees less than 1% adoption among all web apps today?
