There's some lack of clarity somewhere; folks seem to be arguing:

	if communities need to use both datatyping idioms,
	they need double properties.

	PRISM needs datatyping
	=> therefore
	PRISM needs double properties

which isn't a sound inference; it needs another premise:

	PRISM needs to use both datatyping idioms.

I'm quite confident PRISM (and dublin core and most other apps)
will do just fine only using S-B.

So I don't think the statement of the issue is sufficiently clear.
