The good old <font> tag is deprecated which means something else is

Wrong on both counts - CSS streamlines and shrinks markup, and separating
presentation from content is certainly a technical advantage.
Compared to the H's, the font tag does not add vertical spaces.
Neither "tag" (sic) adds vertical space. HTML is not a layout language -
that's why <font> was deprecated to begin with.
Respectfully, you may want to learn HTML before trying to teach it.
