Thanks, yes, it’s totally hypothetical; it may not be sufficient, e.g., for values of `@id`.

Proposing to put *more* blank nodes as soon as slide 2 might antagonize those people, who may become less receptive to the remaining of the presentation. Maybe it would be a good idea to forestall this, with a slide between 1 and 2, or may be just an oral warnin, in the line of:

Good point; IMHO, the probably isn’t so much with blank nodes as explicit blank node identifiers (_:bn001). Blank nodes are simply nodes in a graph without a name. The examples don’t actually use blank node identifiers, so “blank nodes” is probably more accurate anyway. In fact, most use in schema.org of Microdata or JSON-LD is without explicit node names.

(Hint, we really only need to invent a way to describe universal variables at the syntax level; reasoning should be universal based on obvious projections from Notation 3. The required extensions to RDF Datasets and better description of reasoning semantics are work to be done elsewhere).
