I don't disagree, I'm just saying that if we had discussions around REST that started with the assumption that you had to use HTML or something like it, then a lot more people would have a better idea of what REST actually is and could start to make more reasoned arguments about its costs and benefits.

I'd have to say that the major impediment in that case is that there are no benefits.
