4,528 PointsWhy are <blockquote>s (l. 62 & l. 65) indented from <h3> (l. 59)?
Paragraphs like the one in line 27 are not indented from their titles, neither are they indented from <headers> like that in l. 44, but then <blockquotes> are, and same for <ul> in l. 31.

Spacing and indentation of HTML elements is entirely to enhance readability, it has no effect on the rendered output. But because it helps to make the organization more clear, it is considered a "best practice".
