Comment (by alexstine):

 I always got confused in regards to where I should use roles or just HTML5
 elements so I used them both. However, if there is no longer a negative
 effect that could be caused by some browsers/screen readers not fully
 supporting the native HTML5 elements, this has my support to drop the
 roles. It makes the code a bit cleaner and simpler.
