Browser-local does not mean standards-complete
HTML parsing is error tolerant. Source diagnostics, sandboxed previews, and transformations do not replace full conformance, security, or production-browser testing.
Minification can change whitespace semantics
The native minifier protects pre, textarea, script and style blocks while reducing ordinary comments/whitespace. Review bytes and parsed output before replacing production source.
Parser and sanitizer boundary
HTML DOMParser creates a detached document and may repair or normalize markup. That is useful for inspection, but parsing alone does not sanitize untrusted HTML. Review scripts, inline event attributes, embedded content and application-specific URL/context rules before any live-DOM insertion.
