How can a clean installation of PHPBB help identify the source of HTML display issues?

When troubleshooting HTML display issues in PHPBB, a clean installation can help identify the source of the problem by ruling out any potential conflicts or errors in the existing installation. By starting fresh with a clean installation, you can isolate the issue to determine if it is related to the core PHPBB files or if it is caused by customizations or modifications made to the original installation.
