Why are Html Entities replaced by MS Expression Web??

Answer 1

Why does Expression Web do this?? I'm pretty sure it's best practise to use html entities whenever you can.

Actually, no: In a UTF-8 document, it's fine to use proper UTF-8 characters over HTML entities.

So, what Expression Web is okay (Although this is a feature one should be able to turn off somewhere).
