Does anyone have the idea of escaping from HTML/CSS? As these specs are too complicated and not friendly for web developers as well. Maybe we could re-invent a browser engine without conforming to HTML/CSS specs?

An (early) alternative spec/engine would be a Figma-compatible vector graphics spec[2] and its rendering engine[3]. It is called VeryGoodGraphics[1].
