The hyperlink example shows that
<a href="#j" class="include">Ben Ward</a>
is replaced by
<span class="fn n" id="j">
<span class="given-name">James</span> <span
class="family-name">Levine</span>
</span>
The text that follows states that the hyperlink "can require repeating a small
piece of information (such as a person's name in an hCard)"
If the names in the examples were consistent, they would help to reinforce the
stated requirement.
The names (ben ward and james levine) should be consistant with each other.
It may also be a good idea to use more meaningful id names in both the
hyperlink and obect examples, so that those who implement this pattern are
encouraged to use good id naming schemes too. We don't want to encourage bad
behaviour.
Further down there is "OBJECT elements referencing fragments of the same
document erroneously cause the browser to make additional HTTP requests. For
scenarios where HTTP requests are a sensitive performance measure, this makes
the hyperlink pattern inappropriate."
If the object element cause additional HTTP requests, shouldn't this make the
object pattern inappropriate, and not the hyperlink one?
