While it's micro see that html can render a lot of stuff on some devices, I find the comparison to Tex redicoulous.
I have yet to meet a Tex document that on the fly can reformat itself to fit anything from a phone to a large desktop screen, let alone link to documents all over the web, handle banking or playing games.
Tex is really good at getting your print document to look a special kind of way. Html is really good at getting text formatted to your current device, at the loss of pixel (or mm) precision.
And neither format is nice to type your documents in. I guess that's the only place they are comparable :)
