Indeed, it seems the "me" attribute from xfn may not be entirely

Is it even needed for a "master"/authoritative hCards to recognize

I can see a use for it. For example, I'd like to primarily identify
myself with a single URI [1]. From that starting point, I could (for
example) point to my own hand constructed hCard elsewhere or I could
use a professional service, such as LinkedIn.
On the authorative hCard, I could then backlink to [1] and this would
provide protection against one form (and I know there's many others)
of identity hijacking.
Regards, etc...
I should have reworded:
Is it necessary for authoritative hCards to recognize ALL their
children?
It might also be semantically wrong to put rel="me" on a link to an
hCard that isn't on a site that's your own, anyway.
