My bad... I forgot there is a "nofollow" in the Robots tags. See that is the absurdity of this in that "noFollow" can refer to 2 totally different implementations with one being used for indexing commands and one "supposedly" indicating endorsement of the a link. This shows the absurdity and lack of planning for implementation with opaque references for one, is it any wonder we are skeptical, it's with good reason, SE's have been terrible at documenting these tags and ensuring across the board support for them.
