"Should" indeed. But a standard that isn't followed isn't exactly helpful to me.

Yeah, I agree that an alternative doesn't make sense for RSS in particular, but it's not hard to imagine an only-slightly-more-featureful syndication system where individual feed items are directly addressable.
It's just a shame that I've got this really nice, personalized feed reading interface, and I get pulled out of it every time I follow a link.
