Sigh... this is going nowhere. The spec defines a service document
format ands says that service docs can be retrieved by GET on some URI,
that's it. That's all it says. Nothing more. Everything else is your
decision. How you model your resources is your decision. Whether or not
to use conneg is your decision. Whether to serve one service doc or 50
from one uri or 50 uris is your decision. The spec is not broken just
because the choices you've made on how to implement your server make it
hard for you to do so.

I'm done with this conversation now.
