It's not invisible to the XML Infoset, or the DOM, or SAX parsers, or
XSLT, or regular expressions, or so on, which is how hTurtle is able

No, it's invisible to people, and focusing on data that's *visible* to
people is a (maybe *the*) distinguishing characteristic of
microformats. That's what people in this community mean when we say
"microformat," so coming here and using that term meaning something
completely different is like going to China and speaking to everyone
in English. There's little to be gained from this, and much to be lost.
