Clarify hyphenation guidelines
Breaking up compound words is safe; otherwise, test pronunciation.

Use soft hyphens more judiciously
- Recommend others be careful with their use of soft hyphens, and test
  with NVDA. Poorly-placed hyphens can make words sound unclear.
- Dial back my use of soft hyphens to only what's necessary.

Re-introduce RSS discoverability alongside Atom
The RSS feeds use escaped HTML instead of XHTML, which improves
compatibility with certain feed readers (e.g. Microsoft Outlook).

Mention that Outlook uses its own weird engine for feed contents in my
web best practices article.

distinct from interactive space.

Clarify horizontal line test, RT-tracking overkill
- round-trip-tracking is overkill for most use-cases
- clarify that horizontal line test is best used for landmarks and for
  multiple different grouping elements, rather than just any grouping
  element.

  with payload size.
- Remove/replace some inline formatting.

- Replace "click" with "navigate" since not everyone navigates by click.

- translation tools don't always understand nested translate directives
- another pitfall of over-reliance on indentation: nested indented
  elements are ambiguous
- Fix some typos
- Update outdatead references to my site's CSS that I've since changed.

Remove responsive navbar
It's mobile-friendly as-is. I made sure that tap-targets were even
bigger and more spaced-apart, just to be safe.

Hide unnecessary nav-links in print mode.

Reduce accidental skips, add transcript, microdata
When a figure is in the middle of a section, mobile screen reader users
might not switch away from heading-based navigation. Instead, they might
just jump to the next heading.

Re-organize the page to put some skippable content closer to the end of
sections, and add a section describing the need for this.

Also add a transcript to the screenshot of BMFW, and adopt the new
quotecaption shortcode, and fix some structured data by using some
shortcodes properly.

More narrow screen optim for old browsers
Some old browser engines don't fully support hyphenation, so they need
some extra help. Now, the entire site should fit in a 150 CSS-pixel wide
viewport.

Clean up some link text too so the text alone is more useful.
