What is the connection between part of statement and precision? I would think it would be equally reasonable to say about relations that they are "are intentionally fuzzy and high level" and don't understand why we come to consensus about motivations but not relations. Just as we say nothing in the spec about what shape a body or target of an annotation motivatedBy describing has we can similarly define "describes" with range and domain as simply rdf:Resource. Such a construction would seem to me to be equally "fuzzy", which is to say as fuzzy as our definitions of "describing" or "describes". I would not suggest that we adopt any such relations from external vocabularies for exactly this same need for flexibility through imprecision, just as we have not adopted terms from external vocabularies for the motivations. -- GitHub Notif of comment by tilgovi See https://github.com/w3c/web-annotation/issues/98#issuecomment-153850187
