Subject: RE: [xri] What is this XRD is for?
The spec says: XRD --(about)--> Subject <--(describes)-- Alias If someone want to take that to mean: XRD--(about)-->Alias That’s allowed, but not required. There are cases (such as the examples I gave) where this will produce bad descriptors but where an Alias is still useful. If you just think about identity, this is easy and yes, Alias and Subject end up being both described by the XRD. But in the overlap between web documents and identity, or other places where one URI is resolved in more than one way, this doesn’t always fly (because the world will never agree on what resource/representation/etc really means). My proposal is to leave things be.
