I keep talking about a web browser, because THE ONLY POINT of following a 
standard is to interoperate.

So if you cannot find something to interoperate with, why the hell would 
you care about the standard?

So here's a question: why do people bother to quote irrelevant RFC's?

Following those RFC's would make git not interoperate WITH ITSELF, and use 
illogically different formats for the same things.

So if you want to make that RFC have any relevance what-so-ever, then show 
some interoperability issue. Which is why I'm bringing up a web browser: 
that interop issue simply *does*not*exist*.

Why is that so hard to understand?
