And that was the basis of the whatwg decision to drop rev?
Yes.
Was this the study you based your decisions on?

(I am not criticizing just trying to understand it) surely all it needed
was to define some rev values (the same as rel) and people will start
using rev correctly?
That's backwards -- looking for a problem to fit the solution, not looking
for a solution to fit the problem
No not really because If you look at the anyalasis(link above) made in
2005 rev=made (9th) is used more than, rel start, search, help, top, up,
author and a whole lot of other link relationships that have made their
way into HTML5, It doesn't make any sense?
If you have a more up to date study on link relationships, please can I
have a link?
Best Wishes
