If I may add on to this question just so I understand:

Whether the nav element is inside the header or not is purely about design, not semantics, right?

Hi Yeshi, it depends. When designing your site. You typically want to have your navigation towards the top; however, you might be going for a different design where the navigation is not at the top.

This code worked for me putting it after the h1 and h2 and a: <nav> <ul> </ul> </nav>

I gave up, I think you need to encode HTML to show what's going on.
