Right. While user CSS/JS is an interesting feature (in fact, it's a fundamental feature in CSS), it would be a loss if it prevents the HTML code from being improved. Wikipedia should be bold, both in the content and in the style and structure.
Indeed. Wikitext is a significant backward compatibility requirement; IE6 compatibility and text/speech browser graceful degradation is a significant backware compatibility requirement. Random hacked-up customisations and ricing-up that people put on their personal views themselves are not significant backward compatibility requirements.
