> I don't think google cares what HTML markup is used for breadcrumbs

It uses nesting along with itemprop="child" to express the relation of
hierarchy.

> Feedback from actual users, so far, does not suggest its misleading

I still suppose that considering breadcrumbs as nothing more than just a sort
of menu (especially from the software tester's point of view, not from the
point of view of a person who searches actual content on the site) is already a
result of misleading. Quotations from the page mentioned in comment #8
(http://davidmacd.com/test/breadcrumb.html), e.g. "Having the words spoken out
telling the path in short is good", seem to be more important to me. The fact
that some breadcrumbs work well as a menu still doesn't mean that they work
well as breadcrumbs.
