This amounts to an implicit prohibition against inference being done
on that graph.

Does the test suite say that anywhere? The Sparql spec doesn't say
that, of course, which could be confusing.

Explicit being better than implicit, I would be less bothered by this
if the test suite (document, whatever) made this implicit prohibition
against inference explicit.
