From Monica Dinculescu's fyi: [hidden] is a lie:

<style>
  div {
    display: block;
  }
</style>
<div hidden>
  lol guess who's not hidden anymore
  hint: it's this thing
</div>

Surprise today when trying to hide an element and the hidden attribute didn't work. Turns out it's a specificity issue: any CSS display value will override it. So e.g. a list item styled as a card (probably display: block;) can't be hidden using HTML only.
