Pardon me, Sean, but I don't understand how your example respond to Sampo's problem. If I understand Sampo well, he thinks (and I do) that there is a problem when the *same* URI identifies two different things, like say, myself and a picture of myself. <myURI> a :Picture. <myURI> a :Person. <myURI> :containsARepOf <myURI>. And even if you would argue that the context helps avoiding ambiguity, absolute URIs interpretation should not vary with the context. (I'm quite sure I read it somewhere, I'll find the URL back...)
