For comparison, there exists no 100% compliant implementation of HTML4.01 or any flavour of XHTML to this very day, even though the relevant specifications were penned last century.

The 2022 date is the date we expect to have two complete _bug-free_ implementations of the whole of HTML5. We _still_ haven't reached that point with any previous version of HTML or the DOM or JS, so by the logic that makes 2022 a problem, the whole Web isn't ready yet. :-) You can actually use many parts of HTML5 today in various browsers, with more stuff being implemented every week.
