I know of people using URIs to name non-IRs who either disagree with httpRange-14, or do not know about it, or cannot arrange for 303s, so there is some noncompliance out there. Even if penetration is prettty high, a few bad apples will spoil the bunch, in situations where it matters (not that I know what those are, but I assume they exist). Of course it would be delightful if there were perfect compliance.
