Comment (by hbhalodia):

 Yeah, it's bit confusing. I guess innerText returns the content that is
 usually seen in frontend, so for example if div has display: none; it
 would not return innerText from that div, but if we use textContent, it
 would return and also preserves the spaces and indentation.

 So I am not sure as well what to use here, but Ideally if we do not need
 to preserve indentation, spaces we should go with innerText, instead of
 textContent but I am open to suggestions.
