Yes, they do. However, isn't that semantically wrong and precisely
how HTML/CSS are not to be used? If I write a paper in HTML, the
title is <h1> and the section names are <h2>. That's the way it's
supposed to be, right? Having the title and section names at the
same level and relying on CSS to take care of formatting issues is,
IMHO, not correct.

Thanks for the explanation though.
