That's not what it means at all. From the same link you quoted:

No, it doesn't. Read the link you quoted carefully.

anyway, there is no problem to transform inline stuff in block or anything.. to make something really webstandart you have to see the tags as any normal Xml object, and by css you give them atributes.. I usually reset all atributes by css when I make something.. Actually any advance programm recommend you reset it http://www.google.com.br/search?q=css+reset
A CSS reset is used to remove irregularities between browsers so that any CSS rules in effect are intentional. They're not meant so that you can redefine what elements mean. All that does is mess with screen readers and search engines that don't parse CSS.

Of course you can transform inline elements to block elements—I never stated you couldn't. I'm simply wondering why you would do that when there is already a more suitable element available. W3C would probably like to know, too:
