RE: Schema.org in RDF ...

Personally, I find Microdata more complex that RDFa, but only after
understanding RDFa well enough to know how to make it simple. But Microdata
is crummy, crummy at doing what it does (not to mention what it cannot do).
It perverts HTML attributes my making one value-less and making order of
attributes significant.

Why would Google, Bing, and Yahoo! choose Microdata rather than doing what
Facebook did and use a simpler RDFa?
