I think the approach taken in RFC6920 is more appropriate. Basically a disclaimer that acknowledges the ambiguity but still gives solid guidance that covers all the scenarios. Also since hashlink kind of supersedes RFC6920 I think it makes sense to have parity in this area.

Yes that's the use case for fragment so you can add an integrity value to a URL you don't control even if you can't support the hl: scheme
