Actually, no, there are applications far less static than weblogs, particularly the vast majority of weblogs, which are not frequently updated or commented upon. Hence many are in fact implemented as I describe. Many more use various caching schemes, even non-weblog Web applications. So your suggestion that they serve a different page to Google would not be feasible or as easy to implement as you seem to suggest. Google's suggested implementation, whatever its semantic merits or lack thereof, is easy to implement at processing time, i.e., when a comment is submitted to a weblog.
