What a crock. 90 percent of what anyone is likely to need to do is
doable via WYSIWYG-ish HTML editors such as Netscape Composer or, if oyu
want to blow the money, Dreamweaver or FrontPage or other for-profit
stuff.

Text-type editors often have prebuilt tags for insertion.

And for those times when I need to actually get into the nitty gritty of
the code side I either hit my trusty O'Reilly books or surf some of hte
online reference archives.

Put another way only a real turd would insist that you test on HTML
editing without any kind of reference material. That sort of thing is
totally unnecessary. (Do you do programming anyplace without references
immediately to hand? Heck no! That's insane and unnecessary, as well as
undesirable. What happens when the commandsets change every few years?
Rememorize everything?)

Completely not realistic at all.
