I would love to see this expanded into "Just use the HTML element that was built for that explicit purpose". I feel like your average SPA developer doesn't understand what even a quarter of the HTML elements are meant for and just reinvent the wheel every time.

I’d welcome people knowing a quarter of the html elements.

Because in my experience, it seems like people only know 1 html element, which is DIV and it’s used for everything.
