Sure, but we're not just modeling for the sake of modeling here. If
we don't have some specific problem that needs better data modeling,
it's not worth the additional complication for authors.
I understand your point, but I'm hardly discussing "modeling for the
sake of modeling." Rather, I'm trying to look out ahead just a bit,
and mostly to see how the general question relates to the specific
issues of hCite.
I know I'm not the only one who is worried that microformats will very
soon hit a scalability wall, and I think this may well be the primary
problem.
As a simple example, the way some people have been arguing could
easily result in hCite properties like "conference-title" and
"conference-date" (because conference presentations are common to
citations). We then have in effect a conflict with hCal, don't we? Two
different ways to describe events?
