If the feeds have the same atom:id, I would submit that they form a

APP implementation. If the linked feeds have different atom:id
values,
they should represent different logical feeds.
Agreed. From 4.2.6:
"Put another way, an atom:id element
pertains to all instantiations of a particular Atom entry or feed;
revisions retain the same content in their atom:id elements."
All the Atom Feed Documents representing one incremental feed (or
parts of one incremental feed) are "instantiations of a particular
Atom ... feed", are they not? So they should have the same value in
atom:id. If they don't, then they can't be considered instantiations
of the same Atom feed.
