""" The same blank node cannot occur in two graphs at the same time. """ If there is knowledge it's the same blank node why not allow it to be the same? As long as the nodes aren't accidentally equated. As in the default-graph-as-union and the base+inference cases, there are uses for the subgraph relationship and then it is the same blank node. For TriG and N-quads, I suggest blank node labels are scoped to the document, and across graphs. It's confusing to see two _:a to mean different things without much stronger scoping intuitions (esp. N-Quads); it makes it possible to record when you do know they are the same bnode (one graph a subgraph of another). Andy
