that is not exactly true.

When <foo> is empty/not present the <td/> is the same as <td></td>,
because the next <td>|<tr>|<table> will close it. The problem is when
you have an empty table that will display as <table/> and put all
following content inside that table. The same with <div>,<span>,<P>,
etc.
