I didn't realise that it was a change from Phase II
(I didn't notice it until Phase III), but I think that it's just right.
<h1> for the title, so the next is <h2>, and we go from there.
I also notice that starting from <h3> doesn't work right if
numbered heading are set (as I have them set in my preferences).
This justifies me in changing all top level === to == when I see them,
which then enforces a consistent and logical look to the pages.
Great!!!
