Why are there multiple CSS classes that mean the same thing?

CommunityToolkit / ColorCode-Universal

This is a port of ColorCode to .NET Standard. The original Html only formatter has been separated from the Logic, so now it can produce Syntax Highlighted code for any output. This Project can currently produce HTML, and Render to UWP RichTextBlocks.

Why are there multiple CSS classes that mean the same thing? #42

There's the following pairs with the same semantic meaning:

htmlElementName and xmlName
htmlAttributeName and xmlAttribute
comment and htmlComment
string, jsonString, xmlAttributeValue and htmlAttributeValue
cssPropertyName and jsonKey

Is there a reason these are separated out instead of just using the same class name?
