I still don't know why you expect a machine to perform automatic
processing of links based on the link relation. RFC 4287 states:

   The value of "rel" describes the meaning of the link,
   but does not impose any behavioral requirements on Atom
   Processors.

Last I checked on the status of artificial intelligence research,
machines such as Atom Processors were not very adept at ascribing or
understanding the meaning of links, or of anything else.

What kind of automatic processing do you expect a machine to perform for
links whose relation is alternate, license, payment, related, replies,
self, or any of the others registered with the IANA so far? Perhaps that
would help me understand what's missing.
