This question came up in one of my college classes. The professor only gave the answer that it was more descriptive, but it seems as though < b >and < i ><b> and <i> are rather explicit in their meaning and is easier to type than < strong ><strong> and < em ><em>.

What were the official arguments for the deprecation of these tags?
