Comment:

 [http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/text-level-
 semantics.html#the-b-element The b element] represents a span of text to
 which attention is being drawn for utilitarian purposes without conveying
 any extra importance and with no implication of an alternate voice or
 mood, such as key words in a document abstract, product names in a review,
 actionable words in interactive text-driven software, or an article lede.

 I'd say `b` is perfect in these cases. :)
