Because RDF is supposed to enable you resolve these kinds of issues 
i.e., by way of vocabulary/ontology and the relation semantics expressed 
in the vocabulary/ontology.

Referring to the RFC as gospel, in this context (RDF based spec 
construction) is quite contradictory and problematic over the longer term.

We need a proper definition of an interaction modality indicator that's 
both *human* and *machine* comprehensible, the very thing RDF 
facilitates [1].
