If I'm reading correctly, he's assuming that, by chopping off the last
part of the itemtype url, one then obtains a prefix which you can
append individual itemprop names to and get a valid url for rdf.
Apparently the common practice with RDF url structures makes this
fairly reliable.

(I know nothing about common url-structuring practices in the RDF
communities, and I may be misinterpreting Ben in the first place.)
