But the unDRYness of RSS is pretty stark. It's literally a dupe of the list page of any website. I've often been frustrated at having to maintain two versions of the exact same content, and deal with XML, when `h-entry` exists.

RSS was invented just before the semantic-markup revolution (i.e. the end of table layouts). Bad timing.
