XHTML 1.0 Transitional is just a reformulation of HTML 4.01 into XML
syntax. HTML 4.01 was designed to ease the transition between pre-1997
HTML markup and HTML 4.01. Why use it for a page published in 2005?
It's not an updating of a pre-1997 page and they can't be expecting
many pre-1997 browsers to be accessing it. So why use an inferior
version of (X)HTML?

It's an industry consortium. The members decide what it's supposed to
do. Suggesting best practice may be one goal they set themselves.
Whether they live up to that goal is another matter. They are only
human.

At the moment they refer to the same page. It can just be reached via
two different URLs. In the future one of those URLs will probably
point to a different page.

I presume you're talking about making the same page available via http
and https? We've already been over this.
