Re: divergence in the definition of sh:minCount

By the wording issue, I meant that what is being counted here are triples,
not ³value nodes² as the description in the spec says.

When there is a specific property, number of value nodes equals number of
triples since there is always the same subject and predicate. However,
with the alternative paths, it is clear that the query is counting triples
and that this count can be different from the number of values - as the
example shows.

I think if the definition as described by the words is to remain the same,
then the query would need to change.
