dbdave....unfortunately they do. This is what is says at the fop of that specific page:
Canonicals help tell search engines that there is a master version of a specific page. For example, let’s say you have an e commerce site, and on one of the pages, you sell shorts. The fifth page of shorts should have a canonical that points back to the first page of shorts. By using canonicals, you are avoiding duplicate content across multiple URLs. Canonicals are used just by the search engines and have no effect on user experience.
Then at the bottom of the page, under "Analyst Notes" it shows what I quoted in my first post.
I'm not sure what to tell them. I have found multiple odd things that they are suggesting. I hope my client isn't working with a company that doesn't know what they are doing. What would you do?
