Well, yes, but you're more familiar with the reality than most people
that are likely to read that post.

Quite possibly. But such things will influence the adoption of Atom.
Put it this way - there are millions of RSS 1.0 feeds out there, and
pretty much all tools support it. Yet even well-informed people are
pointing to "RSS 2.0 and Atom Compared" as if there were no other
alternative.
I hardly think RSS 2.0 has gained the popularity it has through
technical merit.

Cheers,
Danny.
