No, as long as the primary consumers are Facebook and Twitter (and maybe Google, Yahoo, etc. if they ever see fit to actually consume schema.org), then Web page creators are going to have to cater to all of these 'simplifications' together, as there will be no reasoning, and that 'little bit of semantics' is going to create a bad taste. Point taken about our own inability to stop re-inventing the wheel (although at least we spend every week telling people how to stop doing so - at least I know I do).
