Re: [dxwg] Example 60, 61, 62, why is accessURL included (#1437)

Nice discussion! And I think that @agreiner 's point that a data client should try to always fetch `downloadURL` or `accessURL` is right.

I would just recommend warning against wording like this:

> you can determine that an accessURL is a download page if it matches downloadURL. 

To me it doesn't flag clearly enough that in principle such match should never occur. `downloadURL` being for downloadable files and `accessURL` for pages, then there's something wrong if a page is indicated in `downloadURL`. The same way that it does not feel right if a file to download is indicated via `accessURL`. It's a pity that the cardinality of the properties in DCAT-AP encourages this confusing duplication between `accessURL` and `downloadURL`, as @kcoyle points out.

(and at this stage I hope I'm still right, as I got the feeling that your points clarifies my question above
