rearnote is deprecated.
In EPUB3, the 2 valid things you can put in your <aside> notes are:
- epub:type="footnote"
- epub:type="endnote"

Side Note: rearnote (and a few others) were valid for a very short time, early on in EPUB3's life, but quickly got deprecated since nobody was using it.

The most recent, ultimate topic is this one:
which covers everything you'd ever want to know about footnotes (and endnotes) in ebooks.
People only tend to get in trouble with "Why are my popup footnotes not working?" when they try to create complex, convoluted, and messy code.
Just remember—KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid), and your code should work across most apps/programs.
