Using <sect1>, etc. makes a document harder to maintain. You cannot move a
section at a higher or lower level, and it makes components less reusable
(because it implies a strict level in a document tree). BTW, by default
XXE uses <section> instead of <sectX>. The only benefits of explicit
section levels is maybe it makes parsing for conversion easier.
