Yeah, it would. Say you decide that all paragraphs of a certain type
(say 'answer paragraphs') need to be bolded. the designer surrounds the
text with a <p class="answer"></p> tag. Then, the designer creates a
stylesheet that changes the look of 'answer' class elements (either all
of them, or just paragraphs) to bold. redefining the stylesheet will
change the look of the page without requiring any changes to the
template.

Does that help?
