Right now, I'm working on both a parser and an application. What if my application were to ignore Microformats that may be to spec but weren't interesting enough for my application's purpose? Yes, a subjective decision, but I'm wondering what the community would think of such a decision.
That sounds fine to me. If you've got an application that is designed to, say, add people's portraits to a photo management tool, then ignoring hCards which don't have a "photo" property would seem to be a good move. If your app takes contact details from a web page to transfer to a phone via bluetooth, it is probably sensible to skip hCards that don't contain a phone number.
Microformats are about marking up the information on the page - not compelling parsers to do anything in particular with it.
