Point taken but the counter argument is that thanks to (X)HTML, Google et all
find little semantic value in web pagesand use custom workarounds instead. If
generic XML was used and a mix of specific vocabularies was more widespread,
people would have editors that embed/link_to proper metadata profiles within
their pages.
Today Google uses mostly links between web pages for it's rankings and
assosiations.
