In looking at the hreview examples (apple, readandtravel) who have a

hearing the item information every time.

I haven't checked, but they may be slightly older implementations. For a time there was a problem with the OBJECT include pattern in Safari, which led to the Anchor based include pattern being designed. That in turn is sub-optimal as empty-anchors are poor accessibility. So, if those implementations were built before Safari fixed its OBJECT bug — or before that fix was regarded as wide-spread — then they may have compromised with repeating data.

The new hReview deployment we've just put out uses the OBJECT pattern.
