The text in "4.1 Graph Update"
[[
The difference between INSERT / DELETE
and INSERT DATA / DELETE DATA is that INSERT
DATA and DELETE DATA do not take a template and pattern. The
DATA forms require concrete data (no named variables).
Having specific operations means that a request can be streamed so that 
large,
pure-data, updates can be done.
]]
(which is taken from the submission BTW)

so 4.1 and 4.1.5 are at odds.
