I was referring to HTML5, not XHTML5. Like how in that section linked
above it places an additional restriction on the p element:
| A p element must not contain blockquote, dl, menu, ol, pre, table, or
| ul elements, even though these elements are technically allowed inside
| p elements according to the content models described in this
| specification.
The same should be said about the use of this:
<table>
<tr>
which is ok in XHTML, but in HTML it actually implies this:
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
