It would seem logical to have some separation between web applications and
content. Some websites are content-oriented whereas others are applications.

Also the line between software and web applications is blurring. While
keeping the guidelines separate for now may be most logical, I anticipate
many of the guidelines will overlap as the current trend is for web
applications to simulate the functionality formerly only found in software
applications.
