Sorry, this now seems even more arbitrary to me. If we're arguing that we
have to allow IRI-less nodes to accommodate non-LD JSON stuff, then I defy
you to justify the requirement that properties be IRIs. Essentially nobody
on earth who isn't already an RDF advocate uses IRIs as keys in key-value
structures. They use strings.

And does the third line actually mean anything? Is there anything it
excludes?

JSON already is "structured data" by its definition. I understand the idea
of standardizing a way to represent directed, labeled graphs in JSON. I do
not understand the point of this "JSON-SD" thing at all.
