In and of itself, nothing. No browser reacts differently to valid code
simply *because* it's valid (except for a couple that have 'code
quality' indicators) but several react differently to invalid code.
It can help quickly find problems in code that are causing a problem
(unclosed elements, unescaped &s, etc).
It can find things that may cause problems now or in the future
(things that are error-corrected in the browsers you test in, but
aren't in others).
