I think I don't feel anything of that, i.e.
just getting after parsing either
  <s-uri> <p-uri> <dt-uri>"xyz" .
or
  <s-uri> <p-uri> "xyz" .
is quite straightforward

taken as above (which is actually concrete to us)
and having canonical lexical forms is making
entaiments straightforward as well
I don't see a problem and we have running code
for such entailments
