So the H1 tag often represents an artificial attempt to inflate a page's ranking.

So do links....use of RSS....alt tags....etc.

Just because properly formateed HTML could be used to game the engines, doesn't mean you should stop using properly formatted documents.

Being afraid to properly format a page for the user (and not the engines) means you're doing EXACTLY what the engines are trying to cut down on - designing for them and not the end user.
