When you don't need C2 because you'll anyway only entail a finite
number of triples (modulo bnode identifier), then that's not
necessary. I guess strongly safe gives you just that.
As soon as you add C2, you want to have a vocabulary does cover enough
so that you don't exclude triples that are entailed and that you would
like to keep.
