You've stumped me. What semantic structure does <span class="visualCue">
have? I could call it <span class="mySmellySocks"> and it would be just as
valid, would it not?
When I want my text bold without any other meaning attached to it, why
wouldn't I use just <b>? That's what the <b> tag's purpose is.

<B> makes stuff bold. That's appropriate enough, isn't it?
