I don't see why limiting applications to use only a selected subset of data sources equals "not really using the linked data cloud". This is like saying you have not _really_ used Microsoft Word unless you use every possible font effect for each document you write. Limiting your application to certain, selected datasets seems to be the only 'no-nonsense' way of using data out there while still taking care of reliability, relevance and trust issues.
