It’s designed to be used as a reference. i.e. if my website uses an <em> element, I'll want to make sure I’ve ripped out those styles from normalize.css and placed them in my own CSS file. They will serve as a starting point. You should not be including the normalize.css directly on a page.

Personally, I prefer this kind of approach as opposed to a style reset. Style resets lose all visual information that originally came with the element. If a client wanted to use an <h4> but I didn’t style it in the first place it ends up looking like regular body text with no additional padding or margins. A normalise approach forgives me for my lack of forethought allowing an almost right for 90% of cases.
