I did it that way because I was using the LDAPI as evidence that the
approach had been "explored" (and generally to mention it). I didn't
think it was fair to claim that LDAPI demonstrated reading and writing
RDF through a RESTful API, since (as I recall), clients see JSON not
RDF. But please correct me, if I've got that wrong.
On your specific point, I could s/its use/the practice of using RDF for
the payload format in a RESTful API/ to make it more precisely clear...
