Agreed. Though "discoverable data" is of near infinite benefit to Google and /far/ more limited value to those trying to write an /application/ vs. those primarily focused on presenting content. Yes, that's a blurry distinction, but there are clear extremes here -- ThinkFree on the one hand vs. Wikipedia on the other. Google's not evil here, but clearly what's best for them isn't necessarily best for everyone (not even everyone but their competitors).
