In a lengthy blog post Feb. 26, Charles Morris, program manager lead for Project Spartan, admitted that as the IE version numbers crept upward, Microsoft "heard complaints about some sites being broken in IE—from family members, co-workers in other parts of Microsoft, or online discussions."

"In addition, we revised our internal engineering processes to prioritize real-world interoperability issues uncovered by our data analysis. With these processes in place, we set about fixing over 3000 interoperability bugs and adding over 40 new Web standards (to date) to make sure we deliver on our goals," he stated.

IE has always been a real problem for those developing websites. Differents HTML workarounds for the different IE versions, as well as CSS and Javascript workarounds. It's like Microsoft loved to cause problems just because it could.
