Agreed...Then use Robots.txt not misuse a tag simply because you can!! I can think of at least three better ways then misusing this tag to stop indexing of duplicate content... woops two... content behind forms is now indexed! Duplicate content is not mentioned anywhere as a reason to use this tag by a SE or the HTML spec.
