That doesn't describe how the document is *rendered*. I don't belive
that this is an HTML question; it seems a reasonable CSS question.
Frameset is, implicitly, visual rendering of multiple parallel
documents. CSS does not address the rendering of multiple documents in
an inherently serialised medium such as speech.

Not at all, actually ;-) I think you missed the point of the questions.
The HTML linking syntax was not the problem.

Actually the core of the issue is that frameset documents implicitly
require parallel presentation otherwise navigation does not work.
