Another point: In general RDF statements will be anonymous triples and
reification is just as you say. The context of this discussion is the
possibility of colliding ***named*** statements. The only way I can see
doing this is by applying an ID to a typedNode of which rdf:Statement is an
example. This 'bootstraping' process simply allows one to 'replace' your
Skolem function with a selected URI in terms of reification. My conclusion
is that triples remain unique.
