I wasn't convinced by it as a reason, offered by TimBL, for turtleizing our syntax, and I'm even less convinced by it now. It's the biggest single wart on SPARQL and I wish we could chop it off w/out mercy. But I'm also not convinced that it's too late. If the WG decides to do it, and will put in the work to make it happen, then it's "merely" a matter of doing the work. Cheers, Kendall
