In my understanding of the discussion this was not really an option
after all. I certainly believe that the RDF syntax is a must for a large
percentage of users. I think the issue is whether another syntax would
also be added in some way or other, most probably the functional syntax.

Much as I like Turtle/N3, I do not see what difference it would make

My feeling is that having two versions, namely (essentially) the one you
have now and one with the functional syntax should be enough.
My 2 cents...
