 Sanitization
 =================
 
-This example leverages python-lolhtml to delete potentially dangerous elements and attributes.
-We assume that only elements within a `main` tag could be dangerous. Further, we forbid tags besides `p` and `span`, 
-which are common in blog posts. However, these tags could still contain malicious content, such as hidden text, 
-prompting us to remove attributes.

-Notice how the otherwise hidden message is revealed by removing the `style` tag whereas our known-good footer text's 
-style is preserved. Additionally, the `script` tag is removed and its inner text is retained.

 While this example loads all the content into the rewriter at once with one singular read, python-lolhtml also supports
 streaming content and writing in chunks.
 
 > [!CAUTION]
 > It is generally a bad idea to make your own sanitizer, especially if your use case prompts a more permissive set of 
 > rules. If you are not sure about what you are doing, consider using another purpose-built package like 
-> [nh3](https://pypi.org/project/nh3/) or [bleach](https://pypi.org/project/bleach/).

+> [!CAUTION]
+> When making sanitizers using lol-html, you should generally **not** restrict sanitization to a specific element within
+> the HTML. In these cases, the parser may effectively become confused and mistake an element to be outside the scope, 
+> such as with tags that never close to where the outcome is determined by browser implementation.
