I believe Tim meant "all".  He certainly didn't want someone getting the fifth star just because one URI they used was dereferenceable.     

It's a bit strict, I know, but when I see data where a few urls aren't dereferenceable, I think, "that's not *quite* proper linked data".   I kind of think if 90% of the links work, it's 4.9 stars.
