RE: Best Practice for Renaming OWL Vocabulary Elements

Can't we just say that there is a spectrum of methods for producing identifiers that have certain tradeoffs and to use the method that best fits your use case?

If you're in the machine readable camp you can just ignore any human readability aspect of the identifier and just treat it as the monkey who just randomly typed Shakespeare. Since there's a no unique names assumption we can have multiple identifiers so why not both machine and human identifiers if that's what you want with appropriate sameAs, equivalentClass and equivalentProperty statements?
