The "rando" is a long term contributor to Web specifications. The choice of top-level domain has zero significance, as I said previously, the only measure of official(?:ness|ity) is where the information originates from.

The recommendation does not hold up when scrutinised. MDN is also third-party, thus equally unofficial. The official sources are IANA and IETF. The quality is objectively worse compared with webconcepts. It's not immediately visible wh

There is always coupling. The question is whether a certain architectural design is coupled loosely or tightly. If you read Fielding's blog post referenced in TFA, you can see he is an advocate of loose coupling. I have demonstrated th

That's because you're looking at the wrong place, that's not the responsibility of REST: it can't because it's not a specification, but a description of an architectural style. Instead, it's the responsibility
