3. That also forces unnecessary restrictions on which profiles a UA may

   * User Agent A implements XFN
   * User Agent B implements RelLicence
   * A document uses both XFN and RelLicence, and specifies XFN first
     in the profile attribute.

Of the Web documents that use XFN or RelLicense values what proportion references a profile? If you were to write a UA doing some processing with those values, could you afford to ignore the values in documents that don't reference a profile? Are profiles useful for any real implementation scenarios or are they pseudo-semantic cargo cult mumbo jumbo?
