Well, these "standards" were obviously written by
people who have never used commercial web hosting and
who have never had to deal with DDoS attacks, worms,
spam bots, or users who set their update check bots to
download a page twice a second (and always the entire
page even when it is unchanged). But this is probably
the wrong mailing list for such a discussion.

Thanks for the replies.
