The (implicit) assumption was that some additional app-specific ontology would be layered on top to cover additional cases... and if those turn out to be widely interesting enough, those might even find their way into later specs layered on top of LDP.  There are lots of other groups doing discipline/app-specific ontologies, my goal certainly would be to enable re-use of all that existing work.

Looking at example 2 in the spec:

<>
   a ldp:Container;
   ldp:membershipSubject <http://example.org/netWorth/nw1>;
   ldp:membershipPredicate o:asset.

<http://example.org/netWorth/nw1>
   a o:NetWorth;
   o:asset <a1>, <a2>.


The /nw1 resource is the "informational resource" - the one which might be written on the side of a bus. Given only this URL, I need to know the address of the containers which are then used to manage assets and liabilities.
