There's no way to mandate this.
The Hydra Core Vocabulary is a vocabulary,
not an API where we can set such constraints.

Content negotiation is key.


Just to be clear, JSON-LD alone won't help you,
because JSON-LD files can have quite arbitrary shapes.
For instance,
    $ curl -H "Accept: application/ld+json" http://fragments.dbpedia.org/2015/en
does give you JSON-LD, but not (yet) the kind you want I guess.
Framing would be needed here.

Best,
