Sounds like the maintainer of the node microformats-parser library is open to adding a flag for metaformats. Time to dig more into that!

[aciccarello]++ good issue and thanks for helping nudge this forward! We definitely need implementation experience to validate the spec and iterate accordingly! Also thanks for being open to helping out with metaformats [aimee]++

This is my first time really digging into the parsing spec so it should be interesting
#
[tantek]
definitely give a heads-up if you come upon any questions or weirdnesses that don't align with content you're seeing. I did do a bunch of research for it but expect that there's some cases I missed.

Does this parsing instruction make the `twitter:card` check superfluous since the twitter card matches?

> if there is no implied head element root class name and there is a meta[property^=og:] or meta[name^=twitter:] then imply a head element root class name of h-entry
#
[tantek]
not quite. Pretty sure I structured it this way to analyze other twitter:card possibilities for other types of roots
#
[tantek]
and the line you quoted is a last chance fallback
#
[tantek]
whereas for example: "if it's "summary" or "summary_large_image" then imply a head element root class name of h-entry" is a more explicit determination that this *is* an h-entry
#
[tantek]
Then again, if Twitter implodes and people remove all their Twitter card cruft by the time the spec matures we can drop all "twitter:" stuff
