I understand and I disagree.  I spent a lot of time thinking about this 
and discussing it with Manu offline. 

As written, the document indicates there are attributes that might not 
be present in some host languages.  It also says that when they are 
present, they have the semantics indicated.  I feel this is the cleanest 
way to ensure that when href, src, rel, rev, profile, etc. are indeed 
available, they work the way we need them to.  I have tried to cover 
this in the section on Host Language conformance and in the Processing 
Rules.  It might be good to note which attributes are mandatory for host 
languages.  I will do that.
