Comment (by afercia):

 One more argument to discourage the use of strikethrough is that people
 tend to use it unsemantically. The `<del>` element is meant to mark
 deletion of text as you would do in document revisions. Also, the visual
 and text editors produce a different markup:
 {{{
 TinyMCE:
 <del>my text</del>
 Quick Tags:
 <del datetime="2015-05-01T21:53:25+00:00">my text</del>
 }}}
 notice the datetime attribute should be used only to mark when the
 document revision was done.
