While true in this particular issue they wouldn't work in Safari or on iOS at all... as that is not the case this  shows that to be not true in that particular instance.

Also given that as you say....

> The WHATWG URL spec is designed to standardize URL parsing in HTML tags and HTTP headers

Then thinking about it from a browser-only perspective (as the comments here appear to) is specifically *against the design of the spec* as many other things consume HTTP headers. Not just browsers.
