Other comments to the sugar proposal

Other comments to the sugar proposal at https://github.com/w3c/rdf-star-wg/blob/main/docs/sugar-proposal.md.


(a)
NO INTRODUCTION OF rdf:isNameOf
Why: it suggests a new predicate rdf:isNameOf whose interpretation is undefined (because the range is undefined).

(b)
NO USE OF rdf:Statement
Why: events, situations, and syntactic triples are not statements.

(c)
USE A COMPLETELY NEW VOCABULARY
Instead to the original reification vocabulary, one should introduce a new vocabulary, like rdf:reif_subject, rdf:reif_predicate, rdf:reif_object.
Why: this is important to map back SPARQL results from querying graphs with older reifications.

(d)
ADD to the section on RDF reification an explanation of the new reification.
ADD A BEST PRACTICES SECTION.
