You do you in terms of taste, but the article explains very clearly that there's nothing wrong about not closing them, as they are reliably auto-closed by a well-defined standard.

    I feel like this is in the same vein as semicolons being "optional" in JavaScript.

    It's wrong, but the engines know how to make it work anyways.
